A working class boy, with huge aspirations, Stuart achieved everything he dreamed of and more. However, he soon came to realise that the cost of having everything was more than he was willing to pay. A morality tale featuring his time working in Westminster, moving to a highly paid job in banking and willingly losing it all to find happiness; Stuart will make us all question the true cost of living.Written and performed by Stuart Mitchell Produced by Lauren MackayAn omnibus version of Episodes 3 and 4 of Stuart Mitchell's Cost of Living
