A hilarious, sexy, haunting gay comedy! Set in the same grand Islington house, in 1936 and 2016. In 1936, approaching WW2, Ian, the young master, is in love with the butler, Leonard. Eddie, a handsome friend of the family, seduces Ian but also woos fragrant Lady Millicent. Henry, Millicent's jealous and too young suitor, plays a desperate hand. In 2016 Ian has become the ghost, haunting the lives and splitting the relationship of new owners Edward and Alex. Edward introduces into the mix Lenny, a young man he's picked up. The mischievous ghost perceives a great likeness between Lenny and his long gone love, the butler. Nita, Alex's sister, is a manic yummy mummy adding her own anarchy. Meanwhile, the dreaded Referendum looms.
