BBC Radio 4 - Drama on 4, Ben Lewis - Tiny

A quirky comedy about a teenager who becomes a good-news internet phenomenon.

Quirky comedy about a teenager who becomes an internet star because of his nightly good-news webcasts. With Joshua Jenkins, Julia McKenzie, Mark Heap.

This is the story of a legend in the making. 

A nervous young man lives at the dead end of a dead-end town. On his eighteenth birthday he comes into his inheritance. With a little help from an old teacher, he finds it equips him to broadcast over the internet. 

Living in a house where rolling news is a constant presence, he does what comes naturally - he fires up his computer and presents the news. But his news is different. It puts a spring in its audience's step. That is, until his grandma starts to grow suspicious about what this boy is getting up to, nightly in his bedroom, and tries to put a stop to the broadcasts completely. 

A quirky comedy about a teenager who becomes an internet phenomenon by Ben Lewis.
