Details

Comedian Leon Shepherd is at his wits' end. Unable to get a gig since the mysterious disappearance of his comedy partner at the Edinburgh Festival, he's spending another night in his squalid London bedsit, endlessly rehearsing his routine, when suddenly the wardrobe door bursts open and out springs a bow-tied Yorkshireman to compere an evening of stand-up at which Leon must play the audience. When a police detective arrives to arrest Leon, it looks like the night's entertainment is at an end, but when he whips out a glove puppet, it seems he too is part of the show. But every joke needs a punchline, and like the best punchlines, this one will subvert everything that's gone before...
