I have the play on BBC cassette somewhere. When it was first broadcast it was done in separate real-time sections across the day, according to when scenes in the book were taking place. I also read that they seated the actors playing the Lancaster members at the appropriate distances along a corridor.

P.S. My introduction to Len Deighton was reading Funeral in Berlin as a teenager. Re-reading it last year, it was just as good.
