*STORY:*



Richard Willey, a Labor Junior Minister, plans, under the cover of an
all-night commons sitting, to spend the night in Suite 648 at the four-star
Westminster Hotel, London, with Jane Worthington, one of the opposition’s
junior secretaries. So the seeds are sown (or in Richard’s case, not) for a
hilarious Ray Cooney farce which won the Olivier Award for Best Comedy of
the year in 1991. Things start to go disastrously wrong early on; when
expecting only to handle Jane’s body, Richard  discovers the ‘body’ of a
man trapped in the suite’s unreliable sash window.
