Ed’s currently in a relationship with BBC radio producer Laura - and her expenses.

Ed’s currently in a relationship with BBC radio producer Laura - and her expenses. Stars Christopher Douglas. From May 2015.

Ed and BBC Radio producer Laura seem to be enjoying a state of not uncomfortable, slightly drunken, bliss.

Their relationship has enabled Ed to reconnect with life in London whilst keeping a toehold, and a cat, in Berkhamsted. 

But good things never last for Ed and we see him and Elgar having to take advantage of the numerous empty premises in need of temporary caretakers and live-in guardians, or guardian angels as Ed likes to think of them as Stan throws him out on the street.

Things have also changed for Ping who is suffering the biggest disaster to hit the office since they stopped making pens shaped like bananas - she has a new boss in the form of Suzan -pronounced 'Suzanne'. 

Ed, of course, wastes no time trying to get on the right side of Suzan in the hope of some work whilst Jaz Milvane continues to be his nemesis, plaguing his every move.

The comical world of an author, pipe smoker, consummate fare-dodger and master of the abusive e-mail.

Starring Christopher Douglas.

Written by Christopher Douglas and Andrew Nickolds.
