A comedy by FREDERICK BRADNUM with and Jeremiah is approaching his century, harried by his bizarre family - Millicent, married to an African ex-minister; Herbert, the homosexual Rural Dean of Oddcaster; Ambrose, now a 'resident' of Moscow: and Susan, a beautiful high-flyer - all of them intent on wrenching his worldly goods away from his housekeeper/mistress and their daughter, now fulfilling all her mother's roles. Into this family cauldron, Ambrose drops a bombshell from behind the Iron Curtain.
