Billy Liar

An eternal dreamer, Billy Fisher is a likeable North Country lad with a habit of becoming lost in his own wild imagination. His flights of fancy do him no favours at the funeral parlour where he works and earn him continuous scorn from his boss, Mr Shadrack. Life at home proves just as boring and his daydreaming provides a constant source of annoyance to his Dad. Featuring exceptional performances by Jeff Rawle as Billy, George A. Cooper as his Dad and Colin Jeavons as the mortifying Mr Shadrack, Billy Liar is one of the funniest shows from one of Britain's premier writing teams, Keith Waterhouse and Willis Hall.
