The story the authorities did not want told. This year Lord's is 200 years old, but only now can it be revealed that there is something rotten at its heart. It is not a harmless and innocent institution dedicated to the playing of cricket. This is just a front.

Peter Tinniswood and his good friend from Witney Scrotum, the Brigadier, have obtained access to the highly classified MCC sound archive and at last are able to tell the full truth, about this unique establishment.
