A country manor mystery that's actually a deliciously wicked comedy of manners, The Hippopotamus is a rollicking adaptation of the best-selling novel by Stephen Fry. It centers on Ted Wallace, a lapsed poet, failed drama critic, redundant husband, and hard-working drunk, who is fired from his newspaper job and heads to his old friend's country estate, Swafford Hall.
