  1. First Born

    First Born is a British television serial produced by the BBC in 1988. Charles Dance starred as genetic researcher Edward Forester, whose work leads him to create a man-gorilla hybrid, using his own sperm and cells taken from a female gorilla. He then raises the baby as his own son, only to find that there are horrifying consequences for playing God. Vasco Sabino played the adolescent hybrid, Gor, in episode 3. Other notable cast members included Julie Peasgood, Gabrielle Anwar, Philip Madoc, Sharon Duce & Roshan Seth. A portion of filming took place in and around the North Wiltshire area, with the Foresters family home scenes having been filmed on location in Calne. Woodland scenes from Episode 2 were primarily filmed on location at Savernake Forest near Marlborough, but were subsequently mixed with footage filmed on location in Switzerland. Longleat Safari Park was also used in filming as the setting for the kidnap scenes at the end of Episode 2. The three-part serial was written by Ted Whitehead, produced by Sally Head and directed by Philip Saville. 2entertain Ltd released the serial on Region 2 DVD in the UK on 17 July 2006.
