Our Brave Boys:Â 1: Thickly Buttered Toast

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Another chance to hear Christopher Lee's comedy drama set in the Ministry of Defence, where officers from each of the armed services find themselves uncomfortably under the command of civil servant Zelda, who struggles to stay one jump ahead of her brave boys.

In which we discover the connection between a proposed new bank holiday, George's mother-in-law, and the father-in-law of Moses.
