Synopsis:
Tells the tale of Bill Snibson, a Cockney bloke who suddenly becomes heir to an earldom.
The Hareford clan, a group of insufferable aristocrats, are clinging to their blue-blooded ways by the tips of their well-manicured fingers. The family’s precarious financial situation can only be remedied by locating a legitimate heir to the earldom of Hareford. In due course an heir is found, but, unfortunately for the haughty Harefords, he turns out to be the decidedly non-noble Bill Snibson, a swaggering Cockney from Lambeth. (It seems the late 13th Earl of Hareford had enjoyed at least one brief period of amorous slumming, secretly wedding a woman beneath his station.) The Earl’s will specifically states that the heir must be deemed a fit and proper person by the two very fit and proper executors, Maria, Duchess of Dene, and Sir John Tremayne. A good-hearted woman beneath all her jewelry, the duchess is determined to make the best of the situation by transforming Snibson into a proper gentleman. To complicate matters further, Snibson is madly in love with a girl he refuses to leave behind, fellow Cockney Sally Smith.
The show features a number of well known songs including:
- Me and My Girl
- Once You Lose Your Heart
- The Lambeth Walk
- The Sun Has Got His Hat On
- Leaning on a Lamp-post
