Any Other Business: A BBC Radio 4 Political Sitcom

When long-serving council leader Roland Whittaker loses his seat to a Monster Raving Loony Party candidate with the same surname and initials, he is both flabbergasted and furious. Young Robin Whittaker (who conducted his entire campaign dressed in a chicken outfit and a Viking helmet) isn't happy either - he only stood for election as a student prank. Everyone expects him to resign, but he's persuaded to stick it out, and it's not long before he's being proclaimed Mayor…

Robin may be full of bright ideas, but his naivety makes him ripe for manipulation. As he attempts to get his head around local government, save Chesbury FC, launch a new currency and deal with Trekkies and a German delegation, will he manage to push through his policies?
