Look Stranger
In The Footsteps of Tess
S1 • E28 Feb 11, 1971 30m
We like to make legends into fact - to believe in King Arthur, Lorna Doone, or Tess of the D'Urbervilles. Tess haunts the Dorset countryside that Hardy wrapped around her sad, beautiful life. The cottage where she was born, the byre where she worked as a milkmaid - it's all there, as if she had lived. In this week's programme Desmond Hawkins looks at Dorset from her point of view and his own.
