Quartet is a 1972 television series for the Australian Broadcasting Commission. It consisted of four stand alone episodes.[1] [2] [3]
It followed another anthology series, A Time for Love.
Episodes aired a week later in Melbourne.
The Age's Teletopics column praised Jane Harders' acting in the first episode but called the story "flimsy".[6] John Pinkney of The Age, commenting on the first two episodes, praised the scripting, production and the technical work but criticised some of the acting stating "too many actors continue to bray their roles ... to offer up Mo McCackie caricatures instead of performances." Also in The Age Pat Dreverman gave a mixed review to "The Last Great Journey" writing "The main faults I fear were in the script - some dreadfully corny lines more suited to the music hall." In the Bulletin Don Anderson gave it a mixed review stating "While there are some blatant gaucheries in the programs that might well embarrass the ABC, there are quiet strengths particularly acting strengths that make two of them worth viewing."[3]
