Dutch uncle

Description

The newly acquired wardrobe filling most of the living room of the Godboys' decaying house seems unnecessarily large for most purposes. Eric and Doris upstairs could manage without one, surely. Whatever scheme Mr Godboy has in mind, however, he does seem to be going about it the hard way; and it certainly sits oddly with his apparent worship of the police force and all it stands for. It's not entirely clear, either, why he married May Godboy in the first place. There's little satisfaction for her in the relationship. 'Dutch Uncle' was first performed at the Aldwych Theatre, London, in March 1969.
