The plumbing doesn't work, the cellar is flooded and there is a bath on the billiard table. Exactly how far will the eccentric Lady Dorothy go to save Stacpoole Manor? Will she invite complete strangers in to traipse through her home, picking over and commenting on her worldly belongings and family heritage? Perhaps she should sell off a few choice knick-knacks or heirlooms to make ends meet or hire out the old four poster bed to a dubious film crew? These are just a few of the many options considered in a bid to save the crumbling family pile in this funny and touching comedy by Alan Bennett.
