Synopsis
Roger Hallam has been promoted to Vice President UK by his American employers Planet Avionics Inc.
He lives in suburban London with his wife Jenny, and his father, retired brain surgeon David. Roger lives for his job while Jenny longs for a family, and David yearns for peace and quiet and be allowed to do his daily crossword.
Into this family circle comes Drew, a twenty something young executive sent over from America to learn something of the English way of life. At the earliest opportunity he divulges to Roger who he really is. Roger decides not to let Jenny into the secret just yet. However, when Jenny overhears a conversation between Drew and David, she puts two and two together and arrives at a shocking conclusion and demands the young American’s expulsion from her home!
Roger, in desperation tells her who Drew really is and in no time at all the web becomes even more tangled and before the final curtain Drew has one final surprise! |
