My "publisher" Carcanet alerts me to this possibility today via its E-letter. However, even though the likely broadcaster here within Wash DC (WETA, channel 26/1-4) has recently added an all-UK, mostly BBC channel to its cast of stations, Wuthering Heights will be streaming at 9PM EDT, not Parade's End. Alas. Any suggestions, though I imagine if the FMF adaptation has no major problems, it may eventually be made available for viewing by WETA-TV.
Actually, now that I've checked the time in London, a 4PM stream of Parade's End would not be viewed by the local station here as a desirable time for their first broadcast of this work.
I've published about Ford Madox Ford's legendary editing skills, loved Parades' End when I read it as a graduate student, and have collected his first editions for many years. His poetry problematic in an intriguing way, but I had repeated success teaching it within a course I taught regularly, Modern British Poetry.
