An Actor's Life for Me

on BBC One London

A comedy series written by Paul Mayhew-Archer , from his own Radio 2 series. Starring John Gordon-Sinclair
May the Farce Be with You
Thirty minutes to "curtain up" and Robbie is playing his first
West End lead. But it's nothing to the farce going on backstage. Confusion abounds as Robert's fiancee Sue, his agent
Desmond, and Desmond's wife Marjorie pop into the dressing room to wish him well. Desmond has worse first-night nerves than his client and suddenly leads everyone to believe he is about to become a father at 54 - but who is the mother?
