Tales of the Unexpected - Roald Dahl - ’The Umbrella Man’ - Sir John Mills -Sir Michael Gambon

An extremely quirky and often overlooked episode that rarely sees the light of day. It stars two Knighted actors and the fine city of Norwich (again!) doubling up for London. Sir John Mills plays an elderly con-man selling umbrellas that he’s just stolen from local pubs. Things get fruity when he exposes a couple who are cheating.... I’ve chosen ’The Umbrella Man’ episode today as we have an the extremely powerful ’Storm Dennis’ heading over England today. I hope you enjoy it and we all don’t get drenched later.. #talesoftheunexpected #roalddahl #michaelgambon #johnmills
