Lucy Gilbert (Kitty):
I do apologize, sir, that neither I nor Schwenck was here to welcome you on your arrival last night. Gilbert's Father:
I do not appreciate being left upon the doorstep like a hawker! Gilbert:
If you'll only take the trouble to press the electric bell, Father, you'll be admitted at once. Is that not so, Pidgeon? Pidgeon, Gilbert's Houseman:
Indeed it is, sir. Gilbert's Father:
I have no intention of placing my life in danger, sir! Gilbert:
How many doorstep deaths have we had thus far, Pidgeon? Pidgeon, Gilbert's Houseman:
None to my certain knowledge, sir. Gilbert:
There you are, Father. The odds would appear to be in your favour

Movie Summary
Set in the 1880s, the story of how, during a creative dry spell, the partnership of the legendary musical/theatrical writers Gilbert and Sullivan almost dissolves, before they turn it all around and write the Mikado.
