Description: The Killing of Sister George is a play by Frank Marcus. Sister George is a beloved character in the popular radio series Applehurst, a nurse who ministers to the medical needs and personal problems of the local villagers. She is portrayed by June Buckridge, who in real life is a gin-guzzling, cigar-chomping, slightly sadistic lesbian, the antithesis of the sweet character she plays.

"This terrific movie has an outstanding performance by Beryl Reid as an ageing lesbian actress June whose character George in a soap opera is about to axed. She takes out her frustrations on her lover Childie played by Susannah York. Beryl Reid's non-stop barrage of put-downs, insults, wisecracks and other hateful remarks are acidly hilarious.
