Can boredom really explain modern politics? It might just be the most honest answer anyone's given in Westminster for years. Top political comedian Matt Forde convenes his Focus Group in front of a live theatre audience with a brilliantly eclectic panel — chef and campaigner Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, political journalist Miranda Green, and German stand-up Henning Wehn — to get to the bottom of one of politics' least glamorous but most powerful driving forces. Written and performed by Matt Forde Additional writing from Karl Minns, Katie Storey and Richard Garvin Producer: Richard Garvin Co Producer: Daisy Knight Broadcast Assistant: Sahar Rajabali Sound Design and Editing: David Thomas An Avalon production for BBC Radio 4
