The Bed Sitting Room

In a vividly realised post-apocalyptic London, Mrs Ethel Shroake is crowned Queen and Lord Fortnum awaits his imminent transformation into a bed sitting roon. Meanwhile, seventeen-months pregnant Penelope and her parents have eaten all the chocolate bars on the Circle line, and leave the safety of their underground carriage to find her a husband and finally reclaim their baggage.

Richard Lester's sharply satirical end-of-the-world comedy features a who's who of British acting talent and a beautifully bittersweet, Goonish script by John Antrobus and Spike Milligan.

The Bed Sitting Room stars Spike Milligan, Harry Secombe, Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Arthur Lowe, Frank Thornton and Ralph Richardson.
