Theatre 625 takes its time building the world its characters inhabit, and the patience pays off. Theatre 625 is a British television drama anthology series, produced by the BBC and transmitted on BBC2 from 1964 to 1968. It was one of the first regular programmes in the line-up of the channel, and the title referred to its production and transmission being in the higher-definition 625-line format, which only BBC2 used at the time. Michael Bryant and Judi Dench lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. The series ran for 5 seasons (1964–1968), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.
