- Synopsis
- TV Series (2005-2012). Four seasons. Welcome to the Ministry for Social Affairs and Citizenship, essentially the dumping ground for poorly-conceived policies from other departments. Successive ministers and their backroom team lie, backstab and hopelessly bluff their way through gaffes, crises, Prime Ministerial resignations and election dates - every policy is a kick, bollock and scramble and every gaffe is met with a magnificent torrent of foul-mouthed abuse from the PM᾽s policy enforcer Malcolm Tucker.
