Further details
Chris returns to the leadership of the Cornley Drama Society and puts on a production of a little-known play by Shakespeare. Colin Shakespeare, that is. Sadly his attempts to bring culture to the masses are thwarted by self-raising drawbridges, flammable props and an unfortunate meeting of a power cable and a metal suit of armour. Robert doesn't take his relegation to a non-speaking part lying down either, attempting to infiltrate every scene with his 'relevant trumpeter.' And there's a battle scene for the ages, where none of the stops have been pulled out.

The Goes Wrong Show, BBC1, review
Despite the name, this gag-heavy spoof series rarely trips up.
