An extended version of the pilot episode introduces us to Jonty De Wolfe,weird ,cross-dressing vice-chancellor of red brick Kirke University. Kirke is strapped for cash and matters are not helped when dizzy administrative assistant Nicole accidentally causes finance officer Jason Armitage to pay the staff twice. De Wolfe tries blackmailing students and claiming the cash went on the commission of a statue to make up the shortfall. However the fact that unassuming Maths lecturer Imogen Moffat has written the best-selling book 'The Joy of Zero' brings welcome benefits to Kirke and De Wolfe hopes to repeat the success by forcing Matt Beer,self-professed love machine of the English department, to write another best seller. Sadly Matt has no creative talents but he does eventually learn how to steal Imogen's thought processes.
