A satirical look at the battle of the sexes based on the question posed by Chaucer's Wife of Bath: 'What is the thing that women most desire?' Set in the Yorkshire mining village of Heckersley in the 1960s and 90s, this is a provocative and consistently entertaining comedy that shows us universal truths about fundamental dilemmas.
