The government retainer is under threat when Prentiss McCabe faces a very tricky task. Stars Stephen Fry. From January 2002.

Prentiss McCabe鈥檚 government retainer is under threat from a difficult and complicated task, which Martin so decorously puts it as 鈥減oking one right up the prime minister鈥.

Whilst Martin is enthused with the challenge, Charles is torn and admits to quite liking the PM.

Stephen Fry and John Bird star in Mark Tavener's biting satire.

Charles Prentiss and Martin McCabe return as spin masters in the world of government and media relations.
