"V.I.P.P." is the 26th television play episode of the first season of the Australian anthology television series Australian Playhouse.[1] [2] "V.I.P.P." was written by Pat Flower and directed by Brian Faull and originally aired on ABC on 10 October 1966.
Flower was one of the leading writers in Australian television at the time.[3]
A Very Important Political Personage faces a crisis of state. His secretary is Miss Greensleeves. Lady Montpelier runs off with the chauffeur. His wife Effie offers an ultimatum.[4]
The Age felt the script was full of cliches and wasted the actors "and all those elaborate sets. The ABC should have another look at productions of such little value as this one."[5]
