The Sponge Room is an Australian television film which aired in 1964 on ABC. Produced in Melbourne,[1] it aired in a 50-minute time-slot. An adaptation of an overseas stage play, it was a comedy. Although shown interstate, it is possible that it was not shown in Sydney due to a theatre presenting a version of the play. The play was written by Willis Hall and Keith Waterhouse.[2]

It is not known if a copy of the television film still exists, given the wiping of the era.

Plot

A married man secretly meets with a woman each week at the natural history museum in London.[3]
