Karaoke (television)
Karaoke was a television play written by Dennis Potter shortly before his death, and broadcast after it in 1994.
It forms a pair with the television play Cold Lazarus. The two plays were filmed as a single production by the same team; both were directed by Renny Rye and feature Albert Finney as the writer Daniel Feeld.
Its lead character is called Daniel Feeld, played by Albert Finney. He is a writer, and is supervising the editing of a play he wrote (called Karaoke) for broadcast. He starts to hear and experience events in the play in real life, including meeting a character, called Pig Mailion that he thought he made up.
