SYNOPSIS

It is the night of Michael's and Roma's fancy dress house-warming party. The evening looks to be a lively one until a string of disasters strike, including a distinct lack of guests, a burning garden shed, a marauding Zimmer frame and the prospect of an irate husband on the prowl.  Michael's and Roma's patience is further tried by the arrival of their neighbours, the indomitable Mrs Hinson,  who brings her own brand of party entertainment in the form of the domestic squabbles of her son and daughter-in-law.
