(See page 7)
Tonight's visit to the Westminster Theatre re-introduces to television that delightful young actress Anna Massey - and one of Britain's best light comedy actors, David Tomlinson, who plays the part of David Warren, an idle young parasite with an engaging charm and a reluctance towards hard work. This is in many ways made understandable by the considerable allowance he receives from his uncle, and the luxurious flat plus, manservant, that he is thus enabled to maintain. Into this flat one night, however, comes a burglar - not so much a cat-burglar as a kitten-burglar - Penelope Shawn (Anna Massey), who is intent on keeping up the family tradition of larceny. David, who is engaged to a rich young socialite, finds Penelope not only an embarrassment legally but also a serious emotional threat to his forthcoming marriage.
