He frets about his cap badge, the drawing competition and his father's conduct in Holland during World War Two. But the fibs he tells to advance himself in the eyes of friends, family and the local priest bring all manner of trouble. Here is Morley Charles again, the inventive and sexually curious hero of The Pig Bin, but now he has artistic ambitions and anxieties about links between his family and the Blackshirts. Careless Talk is a glorious comedy of misunderstandings set in a seemingly ordinary end-of-wartime suburb.
