You see, Hamish has written a play, an epic set in the French Revolution, called A Tight Squeeze for the Scarlet Pimple and he wants to see it mounted. Sean, on the other hand, wants them to continue with their double act, even though they haven't worked for two years. He believes that if they perform a tribute to Morecambe and Wise, Hamish's confidence will be restored and the double act will go on. But first, Sean needs to persuade a guest star to appear in the play what Hamish wrote... The Play What I Wrote website.

Reviews

Steve L: 03Mar22:
Didn’t like this at all. It was cringeworthy and lame. I liked the homage to Eric and Ernie but we left at the interval.

Kevin Sermon: 19Jan22:
If you want a great evening, then this is it. Very funny, especially the sidekick Arthur, I had a fabulous belly laugh throughout the show. Many Eric and Ernie jokes, and mispronounced words and guest star name. Fabulous.
