Summary
Harry Truscott (Geoffrey Palmer) is a retired Major who has spent much of his adult life in the British Army.
He's finding it difficult to adjust to civilian life so, when he gets the chance to become involved with a pseudo-military organisation, he doesn't hesitate.
Truscott and his 'fairly secret Army' are convinced that the forces of anarchy are about to take control of the United Kingdom.
They are also convinced that they represent democracy's last line of defence.
