Written in 1980, Alan Bennett set this dark comedy in his home town of Leeds where an ageing couple are living in the city's last back-to-back. With the demolition of the area in progress, Wilf and Connie are soon to be re-housed in a brand new maisonette with a waste disposal unit and non-slip vinyl flooring! When a sociologist comes to observe them in their daily life, normality takes a decidedly atypical turn...
