Flipside 001: Bed Sitting Room, The: Dual Format Edition RRP 19.99 
Lester, Richard
In a vividly realised post-apocalyptic London, Mrs Ethel Shroake is crowned Queen and Lord Fortnum awaits his imminent transformation into a bedsitting room. Meanwhile, seventeen-months pregnant Penelope and her parents leave the safety of their underground carriage to find her a husband and finally reclaim their baggage.

Richard Lester's sharply satirical en-of-the-world comedy is based on a beautifully bittersweet, Goonish script by John Antrobus and Spike Milligan.

'...acerbic and slapstick and quintessentially British.' Roger Ebert.
