Film Description
Sitcom favourites John Alderton and Robin Nedwell share the role of a homeless writer with a highly appropriate pen-name in this set containing both series of the playful, inventive sitcom penned by Billy Liar creator Keith Waterhouse, The Upchat Line and The Upchat Connection.
Along with his many pseudonyms, the roguishly charming Mike Upchat has a rare ability to pass himself off as the character which best fits any given situation. And since Mike lives out of a left-luggage locker in Marylebone Station, that situation will often require his equally amazing ability to chat his way in and out of any beautiful girl’s life – usually via the bedroom. But if Mike Upchat isn’t the first Mike Upchat, then he probably isn’t the only Mike Upchat...
The Upchat Line appeared in 1977, with its equally successful sequel airing the following year; in a twist ingeniously encompassing Alderton’s departure, Robin Nedwell plays the man who inherits the Upchat persona when Mike raffles the key to his locker. Both series are included on this set.
