Cuckooland is a world where the rich can buy everything – including the truth. For three years, Tom Burgis followed a lead that took him from the Kremlin to Kathmandu, Stockholm to the Steppe, from a blood-soaked town square in Uzbekistan to a royal retreat in Scotland. He hunted down oligarchs, developed secret sources and traced vast sums of money flowing between multinational corporations, ex-Soviet dictators and the west’s ruling elites.

And he found one man who wanted the power to bend reality to his will. In this show, Tom Burgis tells us how globalisation and technological revolution have combined to imperil the foundation of free societies: that the truth belongs to the many, not the few.
