132 - Lucky Sods (1997)

By JOHN GODBER
Morris believes that bad luck always follows good, so when he and wife Jean win two million pounds on the National Lottery it looks like things can only get worse! The cracks in their marriage widen, their relatives resent them and, whilst Jean keeps winning, Morris takes off to Amsterdam with an old flame - but will the prophecy prove true?

131 - Shop For Charity (1997)

By CHARLES MANDER
Are charity shops really there to help the Developing World or are they just a sop to the consciences of the middle-class people who run them? Thought-provoking and full of "characters" this is a very amusing play about the nature of charity.

130 - The Haunted Through Lounge and Recessed Dining Nook at Farndale Castle (1996)

By David McGillivray and Walter Zerlin Jnr
The ladies of the Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen's Guild Dramatic Society make yet another spectacle of themselves, complete with their harassed producer and some extremely vigorous sound effects, in this sinister, spine-chilling mystery of murder and mayhem that is guaranteed to bring the house down, or at least a substantial part of the set.
