January 1st 1965, and Malcolm Scrawdyke (Daniel Easton) is stuck in his freezing Huddersfield bedsit, having just been kicked out of art school. Feeling persecuted by the world and especially the Headmaster of his former college, he plots to get some control back by forming his own political party-cum-terrorist cell called Dynamic Erection. Clive Judd revives David Halliwell's political satire
Little Malcolm and His Struggle Against the Eunuchs for its 50th anniversary and presents it as a tragicomic, prescient look at extreme, angry and ultimately hollow student activism. Malcolm recruits his art school friends Wick (Laurie Jamieson) and Irwin (Barney McElholm,) persuading them to quit their own courses. First on the list is a heist on a local art gallery, followed by the kidnap of the hated Headmaster. They're convinced power will follow, but don't have any plans of what to do with it.
