Press clippings
It suffered, and it deserved to, from following Snakes and Ladders (Yorks), a satiric series set in the near future with John Gordon Sinclair] (son of toil) and Adrian Edmondson (upper class twit). Due to a cock-up, rather literally, on the works computer they get on the wrong escalators. The toiler rises exhilaratingly to the boardroom and the twit sinks to the basement.
