Synopsis

In his wildest dreams, Afghanistan war veteran Noddy Stoddart fantasised about becoming king of Liverpool, even though his brother, Knobby, told him he was crazy. But shooting government minister St John Jaunston in the bottom with an air rifle on a visit to the city leads bizarrely to Noddy's dream coming true--as president of the newly created People's Republic of Liverpool.Outraged as Noddy and his Goth/Punk girlfriend set Britain against him through further "bottom blasting" and then faux vampire actions before escaping to a castle in France, the prime minister initially threatens ancient punishments. But, facing Cabinet backstabbing and the loss of a general election, he succumbs to realpolitik and invites the miscreants home as voter bait. Mistake, because that's when--with a little help from his friends, and the involvement of an elf and his dog, Noddy takes full advantage.
