But when his aunt seeks him in the garden, he can expect retribution.

Mischief, mayhem and the antic spirit of children are the stuff of his enduring tales of English life.

The first of five tales by Saki (HH Munro), dramatised by Roger Davenport.

The Aunt ,,,,,,, Susan Engel
Nicholas ,,,,,,, Ben Tibber
Agatha ,,,,,,, Alex Tregear

Director: Ned Chaillet
