Set on the morning of his daughter's wedding, things don't go to plan for Timothy Westerby as the day starts with a bang to the head and things take an unexpected and bizarre twist with hilarious consequences. This play has all the elements of a Ray Cooney farce that we have come to expect: mistaken identities, confused characters and yarn spinning that spins out of control.

The play is set in the 1930's in the country manor house of Mildred Bagshot and guests are invited for the weekend. As usual, the first day ends with murder. The play introduces the inept and bungling Inspector Pratt who battles against the odds to solve the murder. It soon becomes clear that the murderer isn't finished yet but who else will die before the murderer is unmasked?
