Set in 1919, The Greatest Living Englishman says the comedic escapades of "England's Worst Poet" Colin Gilfeather Millaney: an egotistical - though loveable - rhymer who's wholly untouched with even the faintest speck of expertise. He's so awful that individuals toss rotten produce at him on the roads. They buy his literature, just to toss at him. But that does not stop him from penning his doggerel, or inflicting it after what he boasts is the "misguided" public. When a letter arrives welcoming him to come quickly to New York and travel, reading his "runaway bestselling" e book of poetry, he is off like a shot. But, his unlikely rise to fame is due to a clerical error at the US posting house - it is the work of the budding young poet, Edna St. Vincent Millay, they have got published, not Millaney. Nonetheless it is too past due to correct the problem, as Colin is on his way. Troubles, and hilarity, soon follow. The Greatest Living Englishman satirizes the commodification of the arts, while roasting individuals who are more than looking forward to the banquet.
