A play by Malcolm Hazell, based on the novel "The Lunatic at Large Again" by J. Storer Clouston
with Peter Jeffrey as Essington

J.S. Clouston, who flourished as a popular writer of comedy novels before the First World War, could be regarded as a sort of forerunner of the Ealing Comedy. His particular brand of English zany compassion, featuring the not-so-dotty and very wealthy Essington (all but forgotten today), delighted an enormous public.
