Description: 'Flint' premiered just before the 1970 General Election which was to replace the Labour Government of Harold Wilson. It is driven by the figure of Ossian Flint, a seventy-year old swinging vicar who believes in 'crossing lines not drawing them' and espouses the romanticised Communism of Lenin and Guevara. His way of life which has long been the cause of scandal is transformed by a simple young Irish girl.
