It was the 2nd episode, 'Pulp Non-Fiction', written October '04. The inspiration was a newspaper story from a couple of years earlier about Jeffrey Archer. He had been held in an open prison - Lincolnshire? - where the inmates were sent to work in a book pulping facility. An obvious fate for Ed

Ed enters the property market next Monday in a simply stunning slot - situated twixt the buzzy bustle of 'The World at One' and the rural idyll of 'The Archers', all but a stone's throw from the creative mecca of 'A Good Read'.
