Original British Drama

Ed finds himself working with his son, Jake, on a piece of 'genuine' factutainment. Stars Christopher Douglas. From April 2012.

The unexpected consequence of this research is that Ed finds himself working in harmony with the 12-year-olds both on screen and in the coffee stations and tea points of power, to produce a piece of genuinely water-cooler factutainment.

The comical world of an author, pipe smoker, consummate fare-dodger and master of the abusive e-mail.

Starring Christopher Douglas.

Written by Christopher Douglas and Andrew Nickolds.
