The Bass Player and the Blonde

1978 · 1 season

A gentle, talky British drama of mismatched romance and social awkwardness, carried by character interplay rather than plot.

Overview
The Bass Player and the Blonde was a television play in the ITV Playhouse series, first broadcast 14 June 1977. It was followed up with a three-part serial with the episodes given the names of musical terms: Rondo, Allegro, and Andante. In the play and the series, George Manghan, a middle aged, debt ridden bass player in a Jazz band, falls in love with the wealthy and much younger blonde singer Terry, much to the distress of her father.
