Ray Cooney’s classic play Run For Your Wife, which ran for a record-breaking nine years in the West End, is finally coming to the silver screen – and it’s going to be crammed with star cameos.

Cooney, who turned down Hollywood offers for a big-budget American remake and is directing the project himself, has cast 160 of his friends (including Rolf Harris, Sir Cliff Richard, Maureen Lipman, Dennis Waterman, Sylvia Sims, Ray Winstone, Prunella Scales and June Whitfield) in small uncredited roles, with their fees being donated to a theatrical charity.
