Liz is twenty-seven today. It is Sunday in her London bachelor-girl's flat, and to celebrate or commiserate with her on this birthday her elder sister, Jess, is invited to lunch.

When this play was first shown the News of the World called it a 'Glorious comedy'; Virginia Ironside said in the Daily Mail: 'Lines so true to life that they made me wince with pleasure'
