I worked for someone (in the 1980s) who knew John Hopkins' wife actress Shirley Knight and so I got to speak to him on the phone once--and got to tell him how much I loved and remembered this great piece of tv that I saw as a kid on U.S. PBS and that I thought it was as great a family drama as "Long Day's Journey into Night." And that it was the first time I'd ever heard the pun "Gladly, my cross-eyed bear." First thing I saw Judi Dench in and have been a fan ever since. He enjoyed hearing what I had to say and was lovely to speak to. I believe he was ill at the time and had been for several yrs.

The character of Terry (Judi Dench) came from a very early episode of Z Cars, in which Judi Dench played a most remarkable character, who broke into a house. Remarkable because it broke the mould of women being, only portrayed as 'girlie' and passive. I remember thinking it was an outstanding portrayal of her character at the time. I was sixteen myself. Written by John Hopkins, he then returned to Terry as a young women in the wonderful, ground-breaking 'Talking to a Stranger', a milestone in TV drama.

Judi Dench's performance in this is brilliant, but exhausting. I am glad we have some record of her early performances but I am sorry they are in such depressing material!

It is called 'low vibration' done on purpose to keep people feeling low and down and TV,radio,music etc is very good at that but they use other things nowadays like social media,mobile phones and tablets,we are all computerised and follow that way of life sadly.

I remember this being a series on TV at the time, but perhaps it wasn't. I do remember being very struck by Judi Dench's acting, though.

It wasn't a series as such. It was a sequence of three interlocking plays.

Saw this teleplay as a young woman and really it changed my life ....I grew up I think. It did not depress me about relationships but I knew I had to find life and meaning in more than just other people....to see them more clearly....."I see men as trees walking ..." the blind man in Scripture said and I felt I was beginning to see like he did in response to his Master's touch....Judy was so impressive and I have never failed to enjoy her acting.....This piece is a jewel to me and I feel privileged to see it again...thank you

I am not quite sure why this is so acclaimed. Judi Dench seems to have forgotten this is a drama for television, and acts her part as if she is doing it on the West End stage. So many declamatory pronouncements! And why the relentless and exhausting shouting? Her performance is so big, so 'loud', much of the meaning is, in fact, lost. The rest of the cast is much more subtle, and seem to have understood how to act for television.
