Prudence at Number 10

Prudence^[1] at Number 10 is a fictional diary purporting to be the private thoughts of Prudence Harbinger, the new (United Kingdom) Prime Minister Gordon Brown's Director of Media Liaison, but actually written ^[2] by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran ^[3], the authors of the column's predecessor Alan B'Stard's Diary.

In the first episode^[4] we are introduced to a single fast-track career civil-servant who carries a torch for the Iron Chancellor since working on his team a decade ago. Her heart leaps when he rings her to renew their ( strictly working) relationship...........
