Description

Cash Cow is a new rip-roaring, fast moving, attention-grabbing, comedy drama series. It’s the saga of the mother-of-all dysfunctional families fighting over a multi-million pound inheritance. With one small complication: the rich octogenarian head of the family isn’t quite dead yet… Like BBC1’s Bleak House, all the action is packed into a half hour - all the squabbling, the infighting, the double dealing. Cash Cow may be a contemporary Dynasty, but it also has a touch of Dickens about it. Big characters and sensational plot lines. Like Dickens it’s huge fun, poignant and is something of a contemporary satire. The tale is inspired by the mind-boggling true story of 27 year old, gyrating glamour girl, Anna Nicole Smith marrying 89 year old, wheelchair-bound oil baron, J Howard Marshall III. But for our purposes, imagine the front page of The Radio Times featuring Warren Clarke on a drip with Kelly Brook sitting, smiling inscrutably on his wheelchair arm. This is the comedy drama that is sure to get out of the field …this is Cash Cow!
