Centrepoint (TV series)
Centrepoint is a four-part British television thriller, written by Nigel Williams and directed by Piers Haggard, first broadcast on Channel 4 on 8 October 1990. The series, which loosely retells the story of "Hamlet", is set in London's Docklands at the time of its commercial development, and stars Jonathan Firth as Roland Wareing, whose father Nick has been missing for several years, presumed dead. However, when a mysterious telephone caller suggests that Nick may not be dead after all, Roland sets out to discover the truth behind the disappearance. The series initially broadcast at 10:00pm  on Mondays for four consecutive weeks, although was later re-edited from four episodes into two and rebroadcast on 9 and 16 May 1992. The series was described by "Broadcast" magazine as “an expensive fiasco in which ambition far outstretched ability”, and was listed among the worst programmes ever broadcast on Channel 4 in a press pack issued to celebrate the channel's 20th Anniversary in 2002. Subsequently, the series remains commercially unreleased on either VHS or DVD.
