About this listen
A sparkling BBC Radio 4 production of Alan Ayckbourn’s festive play, starring Frances Barber, Phil Daniels, Bill Nighy, Geoffrey Palmer and John Sessions.
Christmas is the season of good cheer and harmony among men, but things are not working out quite that way in the Bunker household. As a motley collection of friends and relatives fill the house with their own wishes, dreams and attitudes, the stage is set for seasonal disharmony and romantic intrigue.
It’s Christmas Eve and while Belinda is rushing around decorating the tree and seeing to all the guests and their needs, Eddie and Pattie are having a serious bust-up. Added to all of this, Bernard is conducting a chaotic rehearsal of his annual gift for the children - a puppet show of The Three Little Pigs - as his wife, Phyllis gets quietly sloshed in the kitchen on the cooking wine. Then something disastrous occurs...

A classic suburban farce
Conjures up the sort of Christmas family gathering we all fear. Even if your family is quite different Ayckbourn conjures up something which seems horribly familiar.

Feel good about your own Christmas
A once a year event + alcohol = atrocious behaviour. The usual scenario for a farce, but a great cast made sure it barrelled along blithely. Good entertainment.

Disappointing
I was really looking forward to listening to this play but it was just chaotic and lacked any real substance.
