Sheridan Whiteside comes to dine with the Stanleys, a nice conventional American family, and is forced by an unhappy accident to stay for six weeks. The Stanley living-room is monopolised by this irascible invalid. Ex-convicts are invited to meals, strange gifts arrive from his friends and transatlantic calls send the Stanleys’ phone bill soaring. This is just the start of things to come. The war that breaks out between Sheridan and the ultra-theatrical friends that flock to his side and the desperate efforts of the Stanleys to get rid of their increasingly unwelcome guest, provide enough material for a dozen comedies.
