Oxford professor Adonis Cnut is invited to join the Council for International Progress, a shadowy organisation which secretly controls the world, but first he must convince the British public to eat nothing but Genetically Modified foods, so he sends his butler Albumen to take part in his favourite TV game show 'Get Rich Quick'.

Cnut strives to convince the Prime Minister that going to war with Cuba will help to ensure his victory in the Euro referendum. Dr. Awkward becomes increasingly addicted to Albumen's home made fudge.
