By John Godber. 

Gravedigger Keith is scouring the birthday honours lists for his name, in vain, when his granddaughter Tiffany arrives at the graveyard. 

She offers him a fag, a chuddie and talks in a language he doesn't understand, but what really upsets him is her news that snap inspections are to be introduced.

Director...Mary Ward-Lowery.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.

Topical drama. Writers create a fictional response to a major story from the week's news
