The 1973 television play Penda’s Fen, written by David Rudkin, is an extraordinary work that still unsettles, beguiles and astonishes fifty years after it was made, and stands as a classic of folk horror. In the first of three episodes, we discuss how its teenage protagonist experiences a series of visions and revelations that ultimately call everything he believes about himself into question.
