Beskrivelse
A gripping BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of the 1970's Iranian RevolutionSomething is coming. What is on the horizon for the people of Iran? Can America's friendship with Iran survive? From Jimmy Carter's optimistic visit to Tehran in December 1977 to the trial of the state's enemies in 1979, this nine-part drama tells the story of the Iranian Revolution, where protestors took to the streets in support of the exiled religious leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, and the Shah requested help from an America already torn apart by its own conflicts.In a time of hope, of tyranny, of change, of oppression, in a tale of power, betrayal and fear, this true story will transport you to the 1970s, when the Iranian Revolution would change the world - forever.Featuring Dame Diana Rigg (Game of Thrones, All Creatures Great and Small), Bijan Daneshmand (The Night Manager, The Boy from Aleppo that Painted the War) and Carolyn Pickles (Broadchurch, Land Girls).CastNarrator - Diana RiggThe Shah - Bijan DaneshmandPresident Carter - Nathan OsgoodThe Ayatollah Khomeini - Selva RasalingamZbigniew Brzezinski - Sam DaleWilliam Sullivan - Tony TurnerFarah Pahlavi - Nathalie ArminRosalynn Carter - Carolyn PicklesNassiri - Peter PolycarpouMehdi - Moe Bar-ElHaikaz / Sadegh Ghotbzadeh - Philip ArdittiGary Sick - David SeddonWarren Christopher - Don GiletMolly - Saffron CoomberSharpour Bakhtiar - Peter PolycarpouGeneral Gharabaghi / General Oveissi - Vincent EbrahimCarole Bauman - Clare CorbettSadegh Khalkhali - Bhasker PatelEbrahim Yazdi - Paul ChahidiHassan - Amir El-MasryJoan - Alexandra ConstantinidiIraj - Ashley KumarAhmad - Ronny JhuttiAmir - Dana HaqjooShirin - Afsaneh DehrouyehNargess - Sara ZeymourProduction creditsWritten by Steve WatersComposer - Ghanvar KhaleghiSound Design - Caleb KnightleyProduced and Directed by Marc Beeby'Exactly the type of drama at which the BBC excels' GuardianOriginally broadcast January-March 2019 2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
