Technology course and they're desperate to come up with the next Grand
Theft Auto. They're not short of ideas but they're short of cash. To
give them the leg up they need, Lesley introduces them to games supremo
Chris Wright who shares some valuable trade secrets with them.
Lesley explains Twitter to Sean, Sean explains Google and the rest of the crew Gill, Blake and Roger plead for creative writing. Myself, I have a small cameo walk on role at the emnd of this week's Aftermath.

What does Anthony, a 7th generation tanner, do to diversify and,
hopefully, save his company? He sets up a business making deerskin
handbags, of course. But how does he brand them? Lesley calls on the
services of marketing guru Suzanne George to offer her pearls of
wisdom. Will Anthony take her advice?
The team sit down, scratch their chins and talk about missing flights, broadband and the first place in Europe to have street lights. There is a scary start to this Aftermath...be warned.
