Plot[]
Hyacinth and Richard arrive at the Church hall as Hyacinth organises a Pageant based on the English Civil War, with herself as Queen Henrietta Maria and Richard as Charles I. However, all of the volunteers supposedly taking part are unable to make it. At a last minute attempt to get the show off the ground, Hyacinth invites Onslow (to be a Roundhead), Daisy and Rose along with Bruce and Violet to participate. Later in rehearsals, however, Hyacinth falls foul of a stage accident.
