Leader Mrs Roberts experiences the poor state of local trains first-hand. Political satire with Jo Kendall. From August 1990.

The Parish Council leader - Mrs Roberts - has a brush with reality when she tries local public transport.

An everyday story of country folk.

‘80s political satirical soap opera set in the strangely familiar village of Little Blighty.

Life here is pretty uneventful, though the humdrum happenings include social turmoil, economic upheaval and vicious political squabbles.
