Arthur Wing Pinero - Dandy Dick

The Dean is short of cash. Could betting on the horses be the answer? Starring Alec McCowen and Patricia Routledge.

A dean, who is a paragon of dignity and decorum, is driven by an indiscreet act into a most undignified dilemma. A horse and racing folk are also involved.
