This TV movie was funnier than it had any right to be. I don't normally enjoy slapstick, but I laughed out loud several times. Also nice and short.

This programme is not currently available on BBC iPlayer

I'm in the US so might be a region thing.

If it is about an hour this looks like it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpSDn-sDbrw

If you enjoyed that, search out the other [Famous Play/Show] Goes Wrong episodes.

Each one is really funny and based on a different theme. I remember one based on a World War II drama and another on Peter Pan.

They did or do have a show in London, last I saw on Instagram it was based on spies.
