Doctor Who does something with
some smugglers who want to find some treasure and read poetry

*** - William Hartnell is
like the anti-Peter Pan as he was born an old man and remained one until
becoming Patrick Troughton. But this week he got Captain Hook to join in.

quickly see through any pants of mine"

This story won the prestigious
Golden Radish at the Chechnyan Television Festival, 1987
If you play the second CD
backwards, you can hear Mark Ayres telling you to bow down and worship the
Restoration Team as your new Gods.
The story was based on real
events and only the names of the Time Travellers have been changed to
protect Jeffrey Archer and his young companions. Oops – what a give-away…
The director originally
assigned this production was wounded when his goldfish exploded. His
replacement fell down a manhole while scouting locations. The third choice
woke up one morning and couldn’t remember anything and the fourth
developed a rare condition where he would trip over anything that got in
his way. This led to the serial having a reputation for bad luck which was
only erased when the burning of the video tape passed by without
fatalities.

"Little is known by the proles
about Story CC. They rather endearingly call it a "lost" story which is so
funny that Ian Devine and I often laugh until our trousers are forced open
by the sheer force of mirth. If anyone tells you any other reason why our
trousers became opened they are spreading lies because they are jealous of
my stature (and to a much lesser degree jealous of Ian Devine's
reputation). One peasant once mentioned to an acquaintance that the rhyme
quoted in part one was different to the one read in part three. He seemed
to think this was a bad thing. "Don't be pathetically stupid" I quipped
when I'd taken off my Snoop-Spy 3000™ headphones and disconnected it from
my portable battery pack. "That line fluff was an absolute godsend. I
must've spent over two hundred hours studying contemporary documentation
in order to prove definitively, one way or the other, whether the error
was in fact a live mistake or if it had been a change in the script over
the intervening weeks. My monograph on the subject was extremely well
received in certain specialist circles which would not invite you pair of
work shy h-o-m-o-s-e-x-u-a-l-s to join as you are both beneath contempt.
Now, if you would stop pestering me, I will get back to my researches.
Good day" and I marched back to my expensive equipment and small glass of
sherry safe in the knowledge that I am a good person and choose to prove
it beyond reasonable doubt on a regular basis."

Judge for yourself, is this the ONLY place in
Newquay or do they lie?
