The return of the comedy drama by Alex Shearer.
1: As Unequal as Others Her Majesty's
Ambassador Mackenzie and his staff battle on bravely, coming to terms with the changing order in Colonel Surikov's fledgling Eastern-bloc democracy.
The new order brings new problems, not least keeping the diplomatic upper hand in a country discovering the ills of the West. So when equal rights for women appears on the agenda, closely followed by the emergence of militant feminists, the embassies echo to the sound of men closing ranks.
