ENJOY a trip down memory lane with Victoria Hall's Amateur Dramatic Society's next production.

Beggar my Neighbour tells the story of how a television is sold between neighbours; relieves debt; forces debt and comes between husband and wife.

The production, which will come to stage on May 5 until May 7, is based on the 1950's and the age defining invention of the television.

Centred around young, newly married couple Jim and Jill Norton- played by real life husband and wife Roger and Natalie Quinn- the production watches as they buy their first television from neighbours the Rignolds, played by real life husband and wife, Linda and Barry Massey.

The Massey's have got into financial difficulties and fun and frolics commence between the couples as audiences watch how the antics of selling it back to its original owner brings the couple together again.

There is also a dash of seduction from Sylvia, the Rignold’s daughter, played by Emma Dearden; A stout Yorkshire business woman, Mrs Entwhistle, played by Anne Dixon and business partner and boyfriend, respectively, played by Brendan Higgins and Robert Goodier.

Beggar my Neighbour is a production by Arnold Ridley OBE (1896-1984).

The British playwright and actor, is best remembered as author of the play The Ghost Train, and for his roles of Private Godfrey in Dad's Army and Doughy Hood in the radio soap The Archers.

Described as having lots of laughs along the way, the production is sure to ring true with many, as television gets in the way of everyday life.

Tickets for the production, which will take place in The Lower Theatre, will be £7 and £4 for concessions.
