Synopsis

The central characters are Bob and Jeff.

The cosy domesticity of these lovers is threatened by Jeff's crisis.

Jeff is considering leaving Bob.... but for a woman, so that he can become a father.

Meanwhile, Bob contends with meddling family members who are ignorant of his living situation.

His mother, a domineering comic creation, complicates matters by pressing Bob to get married.

She refuses to recognize that there is anything about her son which might upset her conventional sensibilities.

Can Bob's family - Lois and Bill, Nona and Arthur and matriarch, Vera - help to rescue the situation?

And will Bob be able to tell the seemingly ignorant Vera that the 'straight and narrow' is not the life for her favourite little boy...'-3 women, 4 men

Press Reviews

"Funny and touching."
— Mail on Sunday

"Entertaining and cunningly observed."
— Sunday Express

"Manages to hit the funny bone without straining desperately for effect.... mixing a lot of good jokes with a warm and sympathetic humanity."
— Daily Telegraph

"Shot through with the most bounteous comic invention and with moments so intensely moving they should make grown men cry. Not in many an evening have I laughed so much or come away with food for so much serious thought."
— Daily Mail
