REVIEW: Habeas Corpus, Menier Chocolate Factory (2021)
Set in the genteel town, next to Brighton, of Hove, we meet jaded GP Dr Arthur Wicksteed (the delightful Jasper Britton) aged 53. His wife Muriel (Catherine Russell) longs for the romance she had, before marrying Wicksteed. The beau (and I use the word loosely here) she rejected is Sir Percy Shorter (Dan Starkey), the five feet nothing president of the BMA.
