Afternoon Play: Three-Minute Warning

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Provocative comedy by Colin Hough.

Do Fay and Malcolm Neely regret not having children? "I suppose I do," says Fay, "but only in the way I regret not having cavity-wall insulation. It would've filled a void." But Fay develops unmistakable symptoms, including morning sickness and an insatiable passion for leeks. It looks as though the couple's life is about to be turned upside down-especially as Fay is 76 and Malcolm is 78.
