A radio comedy based on the premise of the 2007 BBC Four pilot.

Sam, a lazy HR (personnel) officer, and Peter his equally indolent subject, realise the skids are under them: Peter for lateness and abusive phone calls to clients and Sam for his over-relaxed attitude to errant staff members like Peter.

Soon their worst fears are realised when they learn that one of the abusive phone calls made by Peter has been intercepted. Sam and Peter listen to the monitored recording of the offending call and plan strategies to avoid Peter's sacking.

In future episodes they inflict disastrous injuries on their boss on a practice climbing wall on an away-day; profoundly insult his successor on a train; rehearse for their forthcoming and humiliating interviews for their own jobs; and make their last elevator journey - to their shared leaving party. Finally they end up in a queue for their Freedom passes, considering the many new destinations in life open to them, from Ongar to Osterley.

Our Review: An amusing enough look at office politics and getting old. However, the episodes would probably have benefited from being 15 minutes long, rather than the 30 minutes each that they were.
