Synopsis
The dole giro has just arrived, but you soon notice that a combination of DHSS and GPO has mucked things up, and the name on the cheque is not yours, but... your beloved monarch's! Resisting the temptation to cross out her name, add yours, and hope that the Post Office won't notice all the extra zeros, you instead decide to go in search of a knighthood by returning the offending piece of paper to its rightful owner.

Very irreverent, but not really nasty towards Her Madge et al. (Except towards Maggie, but then, ding dong.) Also very silly at times. Unfortunately also often completely unguessable, as was fashionable at the time. I can only recommend playing it with a walkthrough - if you don't use it, you will tear your hairs out, but if you do, and you're the right age, you will laugh.
Parodies are fine, but this one does not have the necessary wit to keep the player's interest, and the game is too tedious with the awkward segmentation between zones and the need to go back and forth a lot.
