Transcript of a radio interview with the Minister of Defence, September 2001

Interviewer: Thank for that answer Minister, now one question that we do have is from me actually.

Minister: Go right ahead Susan

Susan: What is Roundview?

Minister: (pause) I beg your pardon?

Susan: What is Roundview Minister? Is it, as I have heard from my sources, a secret unit answerable to you and the Queen alone? With no regards for the command structure of this nations armed forces.

(sound of the Minister getting to his feet)

Minister: I don't know what you're talking about!

Susan: But Minister..

Minister: (interrupting her) This interview is over.

(sounds of the Minister leaving the booth, slamming the door behind him.)


Clipping from a Newspaper article, January 1946

As the work continues to repair the damage done to the city of Berlin following the end of the war last year, it appears that not all are contributing as they should. Four individuals were seen near the location of Adolf Hitler's bunker yesterday, obviously up to no good. Upon seeing themselves being noticed the foursome quickly made a hasty retreat, vanishing into the ruins of the city. What is, perhaps, most intriguing is that these four individuals all wore the uniforms of the British army. When questioned, the Minister of Defence stated that 'we have no units in the area around Hitler's bunker and have no such plans for such a thing'. When we questioned further about the individuals the Minister had us forcibly escorted from the building. Just who are this four mysterious individuals and what connection do they have with the Minister?


Kind Edward VII's proclamation, 22nd February 190 (CLASSIFIED UNDER THE OFFICIAL SECRETS ACT)

Following the cowardly and treacherous attempt on my life yesterday, and following the brave defense by four individuals, it is by my proclamation that forever will there be a section in our armies that will be answerable only to the monarch and the War Minister [EDIT: NOW KNOWN AS THE MINISTER OF DEFENSE]. This group of four individuals, for there shall only ever be four of them, shall do the things no army can do, take on the assignments our armies and our spies cannot do. They shall be given no ceiling in finance and help. This is the word from your king. This group shall be named Roundview.
