Think about it in terms of a multi national tinned fruit company such as Del Monte. They have a director in overall charge of delivering produce to all major customers, he fails to have all the fruits tinned as required and millions of pounds worth of fruit is wasted and has to be written off.
The C.E.O, under pressure from investors has no choice but to relieve the director from his position.
The failed director's second in command is then given the job but he also fails to have the fruit put into the tins as required and further fruit has to be written off.
In despair the C.E.O. then employs a director from a rival tinned fruit company even though he is still under contract there.
When the new director arrives to take up his role at the fruit factory he is told he can't bring his own management team and he is required to work alongside the two directors who have been deemed unfit for purpose and were thought to have been relieved of their duties.
The new director quickly realises he has been set up as a patsy and goes to The Diggers to get steaming with the companies customers before jumping on the first flight back to Hanover, changing at Heathrow because there are no direct flights from the fruit factory.
