Hywel Bennett

A funny and compassionate tale about the troubles of young newlyweds, whose marriage has yet to be consummated, while other people get in the way.

Based on the hilarious and controversial Joe Orton play, Loot is part moral satire, part black comedy and part police drama spoof. Two bank robbers, Dennis (Hywel Bennett) and Hal (Roy Holder), are on the run from the police after a successful heist. Needing somewhere to hide the loot, they turn to a funeral parlour where they can stash the cash in Hal's recently-deceased mother's coffin. Taking the coffin, they turn to Hal's father (Milo O'Shea) and hide it in the bathroom of his hotel. Before long the hotel is host to the eccentric Inspector Truscott (Richard Attenborough).

As in Lewis Carroll’s classic, Alice falls down a rabbit hole, into a magical dream world, populated by surreal characters and bewildering adventures.
