- Episode Four -
The story so far...
Deep in the heart of Scotland, Arribella stumbles upon an
old pair of Y-fronts. Professor Peaches examines the nylon
garmet and confirms that they date back as far as 1974.
Now read on...
Arribella, the Prof and Mickey the Wonder Dentist sat
down to dinner, little knowing what was to follow (jam roll
and custard). The plot thickens. The custard thickens.
Now read on a bit more...
'Woof!' cried Bobo the dog, as he playfully bit into the
Prof's leg. The Prof shot him and returned to his meal.
"Now, where was I?", he asked, picking up his knife and
fork.
"You were telling me that these pants date back to the lurex
period", Arribella replied. She was still as astonished as a
very astonished thing. "Yes", replied the prof, "the purple
and yellow paisley design coupled with the static feel of
nylon confirmed my suspicions immediately."
"But this means", said Arribella, pausing for dramatic effect.
"What?" asked the prof, as Arribella overdid it.
"This means someone around here ISN'T WEARING
ANY! And worse, they haven't been wearing any for over
twenty years."
A shocked silence fell over the dining table. Arribella was
nervous, but she tried not to show it and carried on stuffing
sprouts up her nose.
"I'd better go and, er, pull a few teeth in a kind of heroic
way", said Mickey the Wonderdentist, before dashing off in
a blaze of flouride. And the silence returned, save for a
small raspberry sound. "Bobo!", admonished the Prof.
But Bobo was dead.
In the next exciting episode:
Arribella discovers another terrible secret, the Prof does
something quite clever with a coathanger and a ball of
string, and Mickey the Wonderdentist fits a brace on a
spotty child.
