New Labour MP Jean Price tries to figure out the hectic Parliamentary schedule and to find an opposition Sweetheart so she can go home for a Birthday dinner with her Husband.

Jean gets advice from all sides about giving her maiden Parlimentary speech, then throws it all away as she speaks impulsively, and is sent to Coventry for her recklessness.

Jean learns about the many ways a member can introduce a bill into Parliment as she tries to pass legislation to enhance child care in the workplace.

Eryl Maynard as the female environmentalist. Carl Rigg as the male environmentalist. Jean tries to find out if toxic nuclear waste has been traveling the streets of her constituency, and runs into a maze of deadends.

Jean agrees to serve on two Parlimentary committees, where she learns of their essential uselessness and the power of the press when a correction she makes in a proposed bill is credited to Godfrey.

Jean is behind Sir Godfrey, next in line to use the copy machine. Godfrey forgets his original copy, leaving it the machine as he returns to his office. Jean sneaks a copy of Godfrey's notes on health care reform and uses them against him, but is unable to back up her statements without revealing where she got her information.
