Season 5 - Episode Guide

Four salesmen Alan, Ian, Steve and Tim are on their way to a conference where only one of them is guaranteed promotion. There is much bickering, Steve is perpetually sick and gets put in the boot, the C.D. player jams and they have a run-in with a Range Rover driver. When the car breaks down in a snow storm they wind up in a deserted cottage with a shotgun-wielding, diabetic woman.

Salesmen Alan,Ian,Tim and the pushy Tony are on a plane on their way to a sales conference. Alan joins the mile high club with a model in the toilet but Tim is annoyed that he is two air miles short of joining the others in club class. On arrival in North Africa they decide to charter a plane rather than face a fifteen mile coach journey to the conference.

Churchill: The Hollywood Years is a 2004 film, directed by Peter Richardson. It stars Christian Slater as Winston Churchill, and Neve Campbell as Queen Elizabeth II. Miranda Richardson and Antony Sher also co star. The film is a satire on the Hollywood take on history, such as U-571 (portraying the capture of an Enigma machine as being by the Americans rather than the British) and Pearl Harbor (where American participation in the Battle of Britain was exaggerated).

The neighbours in a seemingly quiet street may be more than they at first appear.

The Hunt for Tony Blair is a one-off episode of The Comic Strip Presents…, a British television comedy. The 60 minute film was written by Peter Richardson and Pete Richens and presented in the style of a 1950s film noir. It stars Stephen Mangan as the former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who is wanted for murder and on the run as a fugitive from justice. The film received its world premier at the Edinburgh International Television Festival in August 2011. 

Shot as a 1950s-style black comedy, the film imagines former British Prime Minister Tony Blair as a fugitive on the run from the police having been accused of a series of murders. These include the killing of his former Foreign Secretary Robin Cook, although he is also implicated in the death of his predecessor as Labour Party leader John Smith. Determined to clear his name, Blair escapes from 10 Downing Street, but he is a man with no friends willing to give him sanctuary and a fervent media demanding his capture. He is pursued across a fog-bound London by Inspector Hutton and his sergeant who are helped in their investigation by Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown. Blair is eventually aided by Margaret Thatcher who promptly seduces him. But it gradually emerges that Blair may be innocent of the crime he is accused of committing.
