Barrie Keeffe has updated the action of his satirical comedy from the Queen's Silver Jubilee year to the present. He has changed many of the references. Instead of a conniving Hackney family seeking compensation for a dubious docks accident, they are now after a pay-out for a rail death resulting from the improbable arrival of two trains bang on time; and in place of Angela Rippon doing a striptease during the news we now have a lap dancing Mary Archer. But the action still revolves around the humiliation of a City tycoon so royalist that he gets an erection every time the Queen is mentioned.
