Prudence [ The selected name is a reference to Gordon Brown's continual references, throughout his time at the Treasury,to the need for financial caution. ] at Number 10 is a fictional diary purporting to be the private thoughts of Prudence Harbinger, the new (United Kingdom) Prime Minister Gordon Brown's Director of Media Liaison, but actually written [ for publication in British newspaper The Sunday Telegraph ] by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran [ First episode published on 10th June 2007] , the authors of the column's predecessor "Alan B'Stard's Diary.

In the first episode [ [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/06/10/npru110.xml In which we meet Prudence] ] we are introduced to a single fast-track career civil-servant who carries a torch for the Iron Chancellor since working on his team a decade ago. Her heart leaps when he rings her to renew their ( strictly working) relationship...........
