THIS IS JUST A THOUGHT, BUT I'VE GOT LOADS OF CONNECTED IDEAS - WHAT DO YOU THINK? BE HONEST..


"GOD I HATE 'EM!" IS A NARRATIVE COMEDY OF SIX HALF-HOUR EPISODES, WRITTEN FOR TELEVISION. ESSENTIALLY A POLITICAL SATIRE, IT IS AIMED AT PEOPLE OF TWENTY FIVE YEARS AND ABOVE.

THE CENTRAL THEME IS THE SERIES OF MANIPULATIVE TECHNIQUES EMPLOYED BY POWERBROKERS, IN ORDER TO EMBELLISH THEIR STATUS AND INFLUENCE, AT ANY COST.

THE CHARACTERS USED TO ILLUSTRATE THIS PROCESS ARE THE BRITISH QUEEN, HER FAMILY, AND THEIR ASSISTANT “BOND, JENNIE BOND.”


SYNOPSIS:

IN ORDER TO TAKE POWER, THE QUEEN ADOPTS CONDITIONING AND BRAINWASHING TECHNIQUES TOW CONTROL HER FAMILY AND THE PUBLIC. WITH THE HELP OF BOND JENNIE BOND, SHE MANIPULATES CONDITIONS AND INDOCTRINATES, PERSUADING THEM OF THE REAL AND GENUINE, DEFINITE THREAT FROM THE FAILED STATE OF USBEKIKURDISTESKIAS. BOND’S EFFORTS IN THE BACKGROUND MEANWHILE CULMINATE IN THE “DISAPPEARANCE” OF THE PRIME MINISTER.

THE QUEEN ASSUMES “TEMPORARY” POLITICAL POWER, MOSTLY THROUGH THE THREAT OF WAR, AND THE PROMISE OF IMMENSE PROSPERITY. BUT, DETERMINED TO BELIEVE THAT SHE CAN LEGITIMATELY BECOME THE "NEXT EMPRESS" THE QUEEN COMES TO RELY MORE AND MORE ON BOND, AND THENINCREASINGLY ON VICE.
UNFORESEEN BY ANYONE EXCEPT BOND, THE NEWLY INVENTED “USBEKIPAKIKURDISTESKIAN REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENT” SET OUT TO INVADE THE PALACE.

THE QUEEN, BELIEVING THEY HAVE COME TO LAUD HER, STEPS OUT ONTO THE BALCONY. IN HER SUDDEN ALARM AT SEEING THE MOB, SHE FALLS BACK DOWN THE STAIRCASE AND DIES, AS LONDON GOES UP IN FLAMES. THE CAMERA THEN PANS BACK FROM THE SCENE TO SHOW THE REAL QUEEN, WHO HAS ALSO BEEN WATCHING THE PROGRAMME. ANNOYED, SHE MUTTERS TO HERSELF, UNTIL AN ARCHBISHOP MATERIALISES. HIS ATTEMPTS TO ADVISE HER THOUGH ARE IGNORED, AS THE QUEEN IS TOO BUSY LISTING HER DAILY FRUSTRATIONS, SO HE RESIGNEDLY DISAPPEARS. BOND CAN THEN BE HEARD LAUGHING IN THE BACKGROUND.

Crazy, man, crazy. But the hatred doesn't come through to me - this is more affectionate than vitriolic.

Good luck, see you in the Tower of London.
