The story of an expedition into the heart of a mangrove swamp to photograph Flying Foxes. Flying Foxes are large fruit-eating bats They get their name from their clever pointed faces, brilliant eyes, and ever-alert ears. They live in huge colonies and spend the daylight hours hanging upside-down asleep. At sunset they take off in their thousands-flying to feeding grounds that may be twenty miles away and even on islands across the sea.

Set in a villa in Boulogne which a number of assorted Englishmen and women have rented during the summer of 1850, this delightful and witty comedy by Somerset Maugham was first performed on television in 1953. The Spaniard, the noble Duke of Hermanos, sick with love for the beautiful English widow, Marion Nairnehe has worshipped at a distance for at least three weeks, decides that he can stand the distance no longer, and forcing himself upon the household with all the fervour of his Latin temperament, he unwittingly creates a number of improbable, but highly diverting misunderstandings.
