Introduction
Based on the classic 1940s radio serial this is a truly hilarious send-up of all things frightfully British, gung-ho jolly hockey sticks and putting Johnny Foreigner well and truly in his place.
A ruthless Latin lothario has set his sights on the women of London. No gal is safe from the swarthy continental’s sultry seductions as he cha-cha-chas his wicked way into their boudoirs and jewellery boxes. But have no fear, square-jawed British hero Barton and his team are on hand to save the day.

Naomi: Loved it! Yes, it's a bit rough round the edges in places, but the sheer jollity and sense of fun and gusto from the performers, not to mention a daftly funny script powers the show on and makes it impossible not to have a good time.
