Grumpy Old Menopause

Episode 3 of 4

Richard Wilson is getting grumpier with age. So, he enlists help from someone even grumpier than him - Alexei Sayle. From 2020.

Richard Wilson returns with another series of not quite true revelations about his life. Jon Canter’s comedic writing is as sharp as ever as he delves into themes such as celebrity, brand awareness and death. As usual Richard has many friends from whom he seeks advice. This week he enlists the help of Alexei Sayle.

Starring Ian McKellen as Head of Gay, Peter Capaldi and David Tennant as the Two Doctors, and Antony Sher as The Man Addicted To Waitrose along with an excellent supporting cast.

It’s a mockumentary and spoof autobiography rolled into one.
