Ben Elton talks Filthy Rich & Catflap
<p><strong>Ben Elton</strong>, the writer of Filthy Rich & Catflap, sat down for a chat before his recent Perth show in support of <a title= "Link to book on Pan Macmillan Australia site" href= "https://www.panmacmillan.com.au/9781761773754/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">What Have I Done?</a>, an autobiography rich with Catflappian detail.</p> <p>Between Ben's new autobiography and this chat, a bunch of big questions are answered. He's dropped tons of new context around the creation of the show that should keep Filthy Rich scholars (??) updating texts and speculating for years. It's enorm!</p> <p>Fans of The Young Ones, Happy Families, Upstart Crow, The Thin Blue Line and Ben's many novs & musicals will have a field day with the book, getting handy new details.</p> <p>Tuck in Loobies, this is a holy grail ep! </p> <p>Thanks again to Ben, the Regal Theatre, and the stage door manager dude downstairs at The Maj.</p> <p> </p>
