Once a successful playwright, George Maple is now procrastinating, lacking self-confidence and suffering from writer's block. He is seen at home with his supportive wife Mabel, son Wilfred and daughter Kate. They're frequently visited by neighbour Tom Lawrence, a confident, suave and successful playwright, and cleaner Mrs Field.
