In Wilt, Sharpe has created a pathetic mouse of a man, Henry Wilt, who for ten years has taught literature to under-appreciative, over-aged boors at the local college. Tired of the constant bullying at the hands of his hefty, obsessive-compulsive wife, Eva, he finds himself gleefully fantasizing about murdering her. When Eva runs off with a visiting biochemistry professor and his nymphomaniacal wife, Wilt begins to practice her eventual demise by dumping a life-size blow-up doll, wearing Eva's clothes and wig, down a 30-foot shaft. Inevitably and uproariously everything goes wrong as Wilt is accused of murder and mayhem ensues in this delicious and scathing comedic satire.
