Synopsis
Performed in London and on American television and stage with What Shall We Tell Caroline?
A seedy lawyer has been waiting for years to make a grandstand defence.
He is assigned to defend an innocuous little man accused of murdering his wife.
The man cheerfully admits his guilt; he simply couldn't stand his wife's constant joking and laughing.
The trial ends and the verdict is a foregone conclusion.
The lawyer begs his client to let him appeal.
Ironically the man is reprieved because of the ineptitude of his defence.
