Elton is the last remaining talking Snowman - a war-mongering, immortal, immoral tyrant. Ed Mullet is an eager young ghostwriter tasked with interviewing Elton for a forthcoming collection of memoirs.

Elton invites Ed to The Last Hurrah, a notorious, near mythical, highly secret and highly disgusting gentlemen's club. As the sherry flows, Elton becomes increasingly inept at hiding his long life of crime.

This two-part programme is a specially re-edited highlights edition for BBC radio, created from the original series The Last Hurrah, which was recorded in 2012 as a six-part series to be sold as a CD online.
