I wake up surrounded by death and my memories are gone. A man in a beige hazmat suit reaches his hand through the carnage. “Come with me if you want to live”. I know I’m supposed to know that from somewhere, but I don’t. I know the world outside me is not right. People either die or they are Rage Heads. Somehow, a virus got out that has turned people into red eyed freaks who eat flesh. They are fast, their flesh is rotting off their bodies and they have one goal - kill. I don’t know my mystery man in the hazmat suit, but he says I can trust him.

My awful stepmother is the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans. She’s always hated me for being a succubus. It just got a hundred times worse after my father died mysteriously. I inherited the family company, but I can’t remove her as VP because she’s made the entire board into her zombies. After another board meeting goes her way instead of mine, I decide to blow off a little steam with an intern from accounting. How was I supposed to know my really bad lay was her pet?  

Here is Gary Brown's BBC Radio 4 full-cast comedy dramatisation about artist Eric Gill's clash with the BBC over his famous sculpture of Prospero and Ariel. It stars Anton Lesser as Eric Gill and Tim McInnerny as Sir John Reith, the first Director General of the Corporation, and was originally broadcast in the Afternoon Play slot on Wednesday 9 June 2010.

Inspired by real events, the play charts a clash between the BBC's governors and the artist over the propriety of the sculpture's appearance.
