Description
"If at first" is about George Urquart. George is a middle-aged man on the edge of madness, living a dull, uneventful life married to Margaret. He thinks his wife should be disposed of - basically because she bores him. He plans her murder - meticulously and dispassionately just as he would have planned D Day if his hero, Winston Churchill, had told him to do it. Obsessed by all things military - his office nickname is 'Monty' - his planning is given extra impetus when he falls for Joyce, a clerk in a local bank. Plan B now has a dual aim - to kill Margaret and to set up home with Joyce. All his scheming begin to go awry when his wife buys a lottery ticket that wins over five million pounds. As things begin to fall apart George needs to rethink and the presence of Churchill himself in his living room encourages him to make more plans.
