Synopsis:
It is the 1980s and the Winshaw family are getting richer and crueller by the year:
Newspaper-columnist Hilary gets thousands for telling it like it isnt; Henrys turning hospitals into car parks; Roddys selling art in return for sex; down on the farm Dorothys squeezing every last pound from her livestock; Thomas is making a killing on the stock exchange; and Mark is selling arms to dictators.
But once their hapless biographer Michael Owen starts investigating the familys trail of greed, corruption and immoral doings, the time grows ripe for the Winshaws to receive their comeuppance...
