Follow the Yellow Brick Road is a television play by Dennis Potter, first broadcast in 1972 as part of BBC Two's "The Sextet" series of eight plays featuring the same six actors.
 The play's central theme is of popular culture becoming the inheritor of religious scripture, which anticipated Potter's later serial "Pennies from Heaven" (1978).
 The play's title is taken from the song used in "The Wizard of Oz", another version of which features in the incidental music.
Guy Goffette (born 18 April 1947) is a Belgian-born poet and writer.
 Goffette published his first book of poems in 1969.
 Since then he has worked as an editor at the publishing company Gallimard.
 Goffette's poetry has been compared to Verlaine (of whom Goffette has written a fictional "biography") - the contemporary French poet Yves Bonnefoy remarked Goffette is an heir to Verlaine.
 A poet who very courageously has decided to remain faithful to his own personal life, in its humblest moments.
 He keeps things simple, he is marvelously able to capture the emotions and desires common to us all.
 Goffette is without question one of the best poets of the present moment in France.
Beverley Bie Brahic is a Canadian poet and translator who lives in Paris, France and the San Francisco Bay Area.
 Her poetry collection, "White Sheets", was a finalist for the Forward Prize  and a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
 Her translations include "Guillaume Apollinaire:The Little Auto", winner of the Scott Moncrieff Prize; "Francis Ponge: Unfinished Ode to Mud", a finalist for the Popescu Prize for Poetry in Translation; "Yves Bonnefoy: The Present Hour"; and books by Hélène Cixous, including "Portrait of Jacques Derrida as a Young Jewish Saint", "Manhattan", and "Hyperdream," Jacques Derrida and Julia Kristeva.
Casanova is a British television drama serial, written by television playwright Dennis Potter.
 Directed by Mark Cullingham and John Glenister, the serial was made by the BBC and screened on the BBC2 network in November and December 1971.
 It is loosely based on Italian adventurer Giacomo Casanova's "Histoire de ma vie" ("Story of My Life"; 1780–92).
 It was Dennis Potter's first television serial, having previously written single plays for the BBC's "The Wednesday Play" and "Play for Today" series.
 Frank Finlay starred in the title role and was nominated for the best actor award at the 1972 BAFTA ceremony.
Moonlight on the Highway is a television play by Dennis Potter, first broadcast on 12 April 1969 as part of ITV's "Saturday Night Theatre" strand.
 The tale of a young Al Bowlly obsessive attempting to blot out memories of sexual abuse via his fixation with the singer, the play was the first of Potter's works to use popular music as a dramatic device and strongly anticipated Potter's later 'serials with songs' "Pennies from Heaven" (1978), "The Singing Detective" (1986) and "Lipstick on Your Collar" (1993).
Lipstick on Your Collar is a 1993 British television serial written by Dennis Potter.
 It was first broadcast on Channel 4 in February and March 1993.
 Expanded from Potter's earlier television play "Lay Down Your Arms" (1970), it features Ewan McGregor in his first major role.
Dennis Christopher George Potter (17 May 1935 – 7 June 1994) was an English television dramatist, screenwriter and journalist.
Yves Jean Bonnefoy (24 June 1923 – 1 July 2016) was a French poet and art historian.
 He also published a number of translations, most notably the plays of William Shakespeare which are considered among the best in French.
 He was professor at the Collège de France from 1981 to 1993 and is the author of several works on art, art history, and artists including Miró and Giacometti. "
The Encyclopædia Britannica" states that Bonnefoy was ″perhaps the most important French poet of the latter half of the 20th century.

L'Éphémère was a French poetry magazine published from 1967 to 1972 in Paris, France.
 The magazine was founded and edited by poets Yves Bonnefoy, Louis-René Des Forêts, Jacques Dupin and André Du Bouchet.
 It was established to react to new literary waves in the country, which ignored the privileged status of poetry.
 The financier of the magazine, which was published quarterly, was Galerie Maeght.
Double Dare is a television play by Dennis Potter, first broadcast on BBC1 on 6 April 1976 as part of the "Play for Today" series.
 The play explores the link between author and viewer, one of Potter's major themes, and is referenced several times in his later work.
 The play's title is taken from the 1938 Al Bowlly song "I Double Dare You", which is featured in both the opening and closing credits.
