Our Brave Boys: 3: Ladies Who Lunch

on BBC Radio 4 FM

A four-part drama series by Christopher Lee exploring the tensions and the madnesses as the political world butts up against the military one.

Zelda Timpson is a high-flying civil servant whose latest Whitehall posting in the Ministry of Defence presents her with some unexpected problems.
She finds herself the boss of four serving military officers who would all really rather be elsewhere.

Politics come uncomfortably close to home for Colonel George, but something unfortunate has been left in the back seat of a ministerial car and it just might somehow be the answer to everyone's problem.
