One Foot in the Grave: Visiting Uncle Dick

2001 · 8 min

A short, wry slice of grumbling domestic comedy, quietly funny and faintly sad, carried by bickering and deadpan timing.

Overview
Margaret is visiting a relative in hospital. Victor is his usual self, complaining about everything; and Margaret is her usual self, pretending not to hear him...or is she?
