Horace Hardwick, Traver's right hand man, played by David Slater, gave Traver's a great character to badinage with, throwing lines to each other like old pro's, keeping the pace flowing well. A highlight for me was Robyn Gowers portrayal of the long suffering Madge Hardwick, living separately from her slightly sniffling husband in sunny Italy. With her dry wit and good sense, lines were delivered to maximum and cutting effect for David Slater to play up to. Their number ‘Outside of That, I Love You’, maybe reflected more long marriages than we care to think about, as they ripped chunks out of each other before admitting they are willing to put up with each other's despicable behaviour.
