The 'Warford Cricketeers' are preparing for a grudge match against their arch-rivals. Roger, the team Captain, is distracted by the pre-marital and post-marital affairs of his team members. Miriam, his ever-faithful wife, supports him through thick and thin - until she hears a rumour...
Outside Edge revolves around the farcical attempts of Roger to assemble his group of larger than life misfits into a 'fighting team' for a local cricket match.
This difficult task is further complicated by the arrival of an entourage of wives and girlfriends.
'Outside Edge' was first produced in 1979 in London with a cast which included Julia McKenzie, Maureen Lipman and Julian Curry.
It became a successful TV comedy series in the 1990s, starring Brenda Blethyn, Josie Lawrence and Timothy Spall.
