Interrupting only one command from a sequence

[Peter Scott]

I would like to be able to execute an alias that equates
to a sequence of commands, e.g. "a; b; c; d" so that
typing ^C while a is executing causes execution to proceed
to b, instead of terminating the whole sequence.  I'd also
like to revert to the normal behavior upon completing the
command sequence.  Any ideas?
