The New Statesman - The Complete Series Box Set DVD

Alan Beresford B'Stard (Rik Mayall - Bottom, The Young Ones) is a cunning and conniving low-life MP with aspirations to reach the very top echelons of society. A devious philanderer who would think nothing of dumping nuclear waste in a children's playground, B'Stard possesses extreme political views and has no fear in following them through in his lust for power and money. There are no depths to which he would not happily sink, no plot too devious. With the aid of his equally deceitful wife, Sarah (Marsha Fitzalan - Henry VIII, Rosemary And Thyme), and his pitiful fellow MP and whipping boy, Piers Fletcher-Dervish (Michael Troughton - Cold Feet, Holby City), he schemes his way through the corridors of power with an astounding lack of moral scruples.
