Each actor read a short story.
- Amanda Donohoe read Totty by James Lasdun.  Fine but too long (50 minutes)
- David Soul read The Murderer by Peter Terrin, superb reading
- Steven read Poe's The Cask of Amontillado.  A good story and Berkoff was magnificent pulling the reader deep into the story just as the character lures the victim deep into the vaults.  Berkoff at his best.
