80s TV drama with yuppies and a lion

[Board Game Geek]

I think the majority of people on here would be classed as yuppies, IT contracting is a typical yuppie profession.

Spot on !

If you've ever been to a CUK meet, you'd know this to be true.

OK, yah.

Etc.

If anyone calls me a yuppie, I'll frigging eat them

Methinks the Dinosaur thingie (I have no idea where that avatar comes from, apart from guessing it has something to do with B-movies) doth protest too much !

Hang on...I've got your broker on the line. He wants to know if you want to buy or sell ?

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe?

If that is the best you can produce then we really should stop paying for people to go through philosophy degrees. I think the majority of people on here would be classed as yuppies, IT contracting is a typical yuppie profession.

What is the name of this TV drama I'm thinking of? I was too young to stay up and watch it at the time and I want to find it. Set in the 80s (but might have aired in the 90s). It was mainly about a load of yuppies in London but its distinguishing feature was there was a lion roaming round London at night eating people.
or did I just dream it?

Did these yuppies have a walk in wardrobe? and did the drama also feature a witch?

Hmm, no, I can't think of anything off hand

"Capital City"

Shane-Longman, a mid-size, up-and-coming investment banking house in The City (akin to WallStreet) in London prides itself on its youthfull staff, and an uncanny ability to come through innovative, yet more than usual unconventional financial solutions. Although all the characters in the series come to the spotlight at one point, some might say the series resolves around the relationship of the two primary characters Declan McConnachie, a young, high-riding trader on the primaries desk, and Michelle Hauptmann, a vibrant trader with Shane's German branch, who is temporarily located in England. This series features some other notable actors like Rolf Saxon as the American attorney Hudson Talbot the Third, along with an apprehensive, and almost timid Saira Todd, playing Hillary Rollinger, a new trader, who comes under the wing of Michelle Hauptmann. Who would've thought that Saira Todd would later play a key role in Channel 4's "Queer as Folk!" Through the series, topics such as stress, drug-abuse, insider trading, homosexuality, and black-market trading are addressed through the experiences of the staff.

It's by a folk band from Warwick called Black Crow, who led the audience in a rousing singalong at the Cambridge Folk Festival in 1987.

Given that I can quote songs I heard at festivals 22 years ago, I don't think the term applies to me - particularly not the "y" bit
