Synopsis: Ernest and Delia go out to a dinner to celebrate their wedding anniversary. When this is a failure they return home and prepare to celebrate with pilchards on toast - in bed! Malcolm and Kate are preparing a house-warming party: Nick and Jan have been invited to this but Nick has hurt his back and prepares to rest quietly in bed. All three preperations are doomed, however, to disaster by the marital problems of Trevor (son on Ernest and Delia) and his wife, whos descend on each couple in turn leaving chaos in their wake, finally taking over the bedroom (and bed) of the long-suffering Malcolm and Kate. The three bedrooms are presented simultaneously on stage and the action flows in and out from one to another during this hectic night.
