WHO GOES BARE? (2009)

 

"Anyone for tennis?"

 

Running a Health and Strength Home in a large and somewhat decaying country mansion can be a hazardous undertaking at any time, as Eddie Manchip knows. When one is further beset by a sinister crook to whom one has signed away the deeds of the house in payment of a gambling debt; a complete desertion of the staff except for one half-witted and generally hysterically excited maid; an erring, pompous brother; his suspicious wife; a tennis-player in the nude; a quick change artist who appears as someone different every ten minutes or so; the tennis player's kilted Scottish husband and a hearty countrywoman grabbing second-hand clothing - then the result can be, in a word - chaos.
