Empire Radio is comedy drama - two books rolled into one and started twenty years ago about Anthony Augustus Haycock who is an alternative Tony Hancock who never leaves his Midlands birthplace but goes on to run a pirate radio with comic results and a family business that's just as dodgy before leading a P2 Beatnik revolution that intermixes pop culture with politics and everything run with style but on a pound land shoestring, if he can help it along with his band of radio station colleagues - its a book I want to send to Paul Merton eventually.
