Life's Too Short - The Special

Having admitted that he exploited his dwarf clients in the past Warwick finally comes good for them before receiving a visit from Willow co-star Val Kilmer, anxious to make a sequel.

However he tells Warwick that he must provide some of the funding so Warwick persuades Les Dennis, Keith Chegwin and Shaun Williamson to do a series of pub gigs to get the finance. They are a huge hit and at the investors' meeting Warwick secures his capital.

Agents Gervais and Merchant are wary and ask Warwick to consider why a potential blockbuster needs private money whilst factions appear in the come-back trio, requiring the intervention of spiritual guide Bryan Medici. As Warwick realises that Val may well have cheated him there is at least huge reassurance in the solidarity which now exists with his clients.
