"Puns based on my name now getting old, reports Mr Dillon Doe."

George Thaddeus "The Tank" Crudgeon is the most loved TV journalist in the nation, according to himself. Join him in the studio as he asks the big questions about arguably quite minor issues, whilst dealing with managers not appreciating his talent, a tendency towards the bottle, and the fallout from his three-and-a-half divorces.

Featuring special guest appearances from a no-good dastardly outlaw, a surprisingly insightful dating coach, and Naylor Swoft (any resemblance to a billionaire popstar is purely coincidental).

The news is breaking and it's George Crudgeon's job to fix it.

This production is suitable for ages 16 and over.
