''Revolting People'' is a BBC Radio 4 situation comedy set in colonial Baltimore, Maryland, just before the American Revolutionary War. The series is written by the Briton Andy Hamilton and the American Jay Tarses, with Tarses playing a sour shopkeeper named Samuel Oliphant and Hamilton playing a cheerfully corrupt, one-legged, one-eyed, one-armed, one-eared one-nostrilled British soldier, Sergeant Roy McGurk, billeted on him. Samuel's children are Mary, in love with McGurk's commanding officer Captain Brimshaw while at the same time operating as a notorious anti-British pamphleteer under the pseudonym Spartacus; Cora, in an unconsummated marriage with the pompous pro-British official Ezekiel but nevertheless a mother; and the dimwitted Joshua, whose favourite recreation is wrestling bears. Repeats on the series now play on BBC Radio 4 Extra (formerly BBC Radio 7). == Cast == *Andy HamiltonSergeant McGurk *Jay TarsesSamuel Oliphant *Sophie Thompson〔Series 1〕 / Jan Ravens〔Series 2 and 3〕 / Julia Hills〔Series 4〕Mary Oliphant *James FleetCaptain Brimshaw *Hugh DennisEzekiel Spriggs *Felicity Montagu〔Series 1〕 / Penelope Nice〔Series 2 and 3〕Cora (Spriggs, née Oliphant) *Tony MaudsleyJoshua *Susie BlakeMrs. Arbuthnot Additional roles played by Philip Pope, Michael Fenton Stevens, Rebecca Front and the cast.
