Synopsis
Dominic Savage’s documentary follows three men who like to complain about goods and services. David Walsh specialises in complaining to supermarket store managers. He is so dedicated to his cause, he even counts the cherries in his pies! Food portions are Alan Birkin’s bugbear, in an endless quest for value for money. The last of the trio, super salesman and self-made tycoon Barry Ritchie will not accept second best from anyone, as one of his unfortunate employees learns to his cost. But, asks Cutting Edge, are these men inadequate compulsives, or ’90s super-heroes fighting to protect our rights?
