Before Bond, there was Barton.

A dastardly plot to poison the entire British tea supply threatens the future of the nation. Only our intrepid hero can save us now. As swiftly as a speeding bullet - it’s Barton to the rescue in his most perilous mission yet. Will he escape the clutches of evil temptress Marta Heartburn in time to save the free world, or will he get caught in her web of deceit? Tune in for a nail-biting, cliffhanging adventure.

Stiff-upper lip meets tongue-in-cheek in a hilarious musical spoof on the classic 1940s BBC radio series.

"It's hard to top a Phil Willmott show." Daily Mail

"[There's a] great live, ensemble feel to the show…there is plenty in this show to enjoy: the songs are great and there are gags to make you laugh and groan." British Theatre Guide
