David Baddiel tries to understand what the International Monetary Fund actually does.
He starts by speaking to the former Chancellor, Alastair Darling, and rapidly discovers that he might first need a quick course on basic macroeconomics. But even once he's got through that, can he figure out what this very opaque-seeming international body is and does?
Producer: Giles Edwards.
