Wouldn't Want To Live There
26 October 2014
Larry Blyden plays immoral small-time crook Rocky Valentine, who is running away from the police after a robbery when he seems to have been shot and killed, only to find the smiling face of a Mr. Pip(played wonderfully by Sebastian Cabot) who declares himself his guide in the next world, where at first Rocky is ecstatic in, with all the gambling and women he can take, but after a while the unimaginative Valentine gets bored and dissatisfied, and begs to go to the other place, but Mr. Pip has a big shock in store for him... Memorable episode may now be obvious, but Cabot is superb, elevating this one a couple of notches, and really brings home the sting of the end revelation.
