KH: This is an interview on 10th November with David Simeon interviewed by Kate Harris. Can I just confirm that I have got your permission for copyright on this interview? DS: You do indeed, absolutely, yes. KH: That’s great, thank you. I would just like to start by asking you about the beginning of your career, how you became interested in working in the theatre. DS: My first knowledge that I was going to be an actor was when I was round about four years old, and I’ll tell you… My grandmother taught me how to read by the time I was two. OK, not Proust, but I could read by the time I got to infant school. I must tell you this story because it actually has a bearing on what happened later. When I got to infant school I was four and I could, as I said, already read and so I was terribly bored watching people put A, B, C and D up on the blackboard, and by the time I was about five, suddenly this horrible man came into the second form of the infants who turned out to be the headmaster of the primary school opposite and he ordered me out, took me across the road, put me on a dais in front of the whole of the primary school, and I was made to read from the Bible at the age of five.

Billy Smart Abstract: Unlike the theatre, there is no established tradition of plays being revived (new productions made from existing scripts) on television. The only instance of this mode of production in Britain has been the regular adaptation of classic theatrical plays. The existence of three separate BBC versions of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard (1962, 1971, 1981) creates a rare opportunity to trace developing styles of direction and performance in studio television drama through three different interpretations of the same scene.
