Up 'n' Under

Up 'n' Under is a comedy by English playwright John Godber, first staged at the Hull Truck Theatre in 1984.

Ex-pro Arthur's only passions in life are his wife and rugby league.

However, the 'Wheatsheaf Arms' can only muster a side of four whose pride lies in their unbroken record of defeat.

The pitifully unfit set of men have to accept the help of a coach, who just happens to be a woman.

Godber scripted and directed the film adaptation in 1997 with Samantha Janus, Gary Olsen, Ralph Brown, Neil Morrissey, Richard Ridings, Tony Slattery, Brian Glover, David MacCreedy, Griff Rhys Jones, John Thomson, Susan Tully, and Iain Rogerson.
