Miriam Margolyes, Alison Steadman and Nigel Planer star in Sue
Limb's comedy parodying the arty and adulterous adventures of the
Bloomsbury Group. A stellar cast, including Roger Lloyd-Pack,
Morwenna Banks, Jonathan Coy and John Sessions, join in this
affectionate send-up of the infamous Bloomsbury literary group, who
dominated the English cultural scene in the early 20th Century. The
series follows the fortunes of Vera Sackcloth-Vest - writer,
gardener and transvestite - and her urge to escape from the
tranquillity of the rather cramped little castle in Kent which she
shares with her doting but ambiguous husband, who is 'something in
the Foreign Office'. Vera's heart is forever surging with exotic
passion, either for Ginny Fox, a highly-strung novelist who adores
her, or the beautiful but shallow Venus Traduces. As the scene
shifts from Kent to London, and Cornwall to Monaco, this close-knit
coterie is divided by misunderstandings, jealousies and rows,
whilst the colourfully chaotic characters are joined by such
sort-of familiar figures as DH Lollipop, TS Jellitot and Sigmund
Void.
