Merry Widower, The
Richard works in advertising and lives in a ground floor flat in South West London with his wife Harriet. He never really got on with his mother and after her death his dad decides to pay them both a rare visit. Not thrilled with the idea of him coming to stay, Richard is taken aback when his father arrives and discusses the contents of his mother's will and it's not what he wants to hear. Together with this and his father's bad habits and womanising, tension mounts in the couple's home, whilst his father decides to embrace his life as a merry widower.
Notes:
based on the characters of Tom, Dick & Harriet created by Johnnie Mortimer and Brian Cooke
