On Whitehall, there is a theatre with a famous history. It was once the home of `British Farce', but some years back the curtain fell on its vicars with their falling trousers for the last time. It rose again to reveal women in even greater states of undress, who in turn were sacrificed on the altar of greed to make way for the real money spinner - a theatre that now proudly bears the name of `The Theatre of War'.
