Description

Dick Barton, hero of the BBC's 1940's radio serial is back in this, the third of Phil Wilmott's critically acclaimed and hugely successful series of musical comedies. This show works independetly of its predecessors or as the final part of a hilarous trilogy. A ruthless Latin lover Lothario has set his sights on the women of London. No gal is safe from the swarthy continental's sultry seductions as he cha-cha-chas his wicked way into the boudoirs and jewellery boxes of Belgravia Thank heavens that square-jawed British hero, Barton, is on hand to save the dignity and diamonds of our dowagers and debutantes - but will the fancy footwork of this foreign fiend defeat him
