|Much the better of the two British big-screen adaptations of [[George Orwell]]'s iconic anti-totalitarian 1949 [[Nineteen Eighty-Four|novel]], Michael Radford's 1984 film starring Richard Burton alongside John Hurt and Suzanna Hamilton as the doomed lovers depicted Airstrip One as a "bleakly beautiful" re-creation of post-war 'Austerity London' by shooting in the derelict Docklands area that Stanley Kubrick would use to great effect two years later filming the second half of Full Metal Jacket.  Rab C. Nesbitt fans will be astounded by then-unknown actor Gregor Fisher's faultless English accent as Parsons.
