Lord Greycoat is racking
his brains for a story to tell Gervaise when he suddenly remembers how he
lost his son years ago when the boy's carry-cot was thrown from a plane over
the African Jungle! In a light-hearted and fun-filled flashback we relive
the finding of the baby by apes and his commandeering by the ants who raise
him. An expedition is mounted to find the adult Zartan, who is now suffering
from a split personality and doubts about his extraordinary size in
comparison to his 'parents'. Through Greycoat's secretary, Jane, Zartan
discovers his true identity and love! But a creepy taxidermist is lurking -
hell bent on stuffing everything in sight!
Publican Gosforth's
running the village gala, but there's bad personal news from stalwart
Milly Carter over the public-address system. Pink-legged Cubmaster Stewart
Stokes discovers alcohol, there's a fine Vicar, and Councillor Mrs Piece
gets severely dishevelled. And that's before the rain. Gosforth's Fete
starts as drama, develops into well-choreographed chaos as everything goes
wrong and climaxes as full-blown farce.
