Sadie, It's Cold Outside

Written by multi-award-winning playwright Jack Rosenthal one of Britain's best-loved and most consistently successful screenwriters - Sadie, It's Cold Outside is a wry and sympathetic comedy starring Rosemary Leach and Bernard Hepton as Sadie and Norman Potter, a world-weary middle-aged couple lamenting their lost dreams in an exhausting, increasingly hostile world.

When Sadie was a little girl, her one ambition was to be a housewife. Now, having spent the last 23 years cooking, cleaning and sleeping with her leg in an elastic bandage, her one ambition is to take all her clothes off in Tesco, stick a Green Shield Stamp on her navel and scream herself sick.

When Norman was a little boy, his ambition was to single-handedly thrash Australia in every Test Match or possibly win a Nobel Prize. Sadly, he's never had the time; he's been busy every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday watching television... and Sunday's his day of rest!
