This sitcom follows the life of Ed Reardon, a curmudgeonly writer who has only managed to have one novel published since the 60s.
Despite his distinct lack of success, Ed remains bullishly optimistic about his future. Yes, he may only have a single pair of trousers and have one of the lowest sales ranks on Amazon, but no writer knows more about stealing stationery from their agent… as a freeloader Ed Reardon is the acknowledged king of his profession!
Regular characters joining Ed include Felix, the boss of Ed’s publishers, Ping his ’12 year-old’ agent, the lively pensioners he teaches a screenwriting class to, and his old friend the irritatingly rich and successful movie director Jaz Milvane.
In recent series, Ed found himself still battling through the week encountering the numerous ’12-year-olds’ who run the media (the young Alex heading up the publishing company); teaching the lively bunch of pensioners who can show him a thing or two about moneymaking schemes, frugal living and having a good time; and having regular run-ins with the rather successful Jaz, director of his only ever book-to-screen adaptation.
Over the series, he takes advantage of the numerous empty premises in need of temporary caretakers and live-in guardians, or ‘guardian angels’ as Ed likes to think of them, as Stan throws him out on the street.
Things have also changed for Ping, who is suffering the biggest disaster to hit the office since they stopped making pens shaped like bananas. She has a new boss called Suzan – pronounced Suzanne. Ed, of course, wastes no time trying to get on the right side of Suzan in the hope of some work whilst Jaz Milvane continues to be his nemesis, plaguing his every move.
