Stoneybridge. Brucie is getting married, so his long-term partner can divorce
him. The stag night does not go well; there is only one can of beer, no video
player for the dirty 'vido' and Maigret turns out to be the stripper.

underprivileged child. They go through a list from an agency, but are appalled
at the low standard of children available and complain to the agency.

to attempt it.
The Open Golf Championship. Two commentators swap banalities as they discuss
the competition. The finalists are Thor, God of Thunder, and a Cyberman. Other
players include Quasimodo, Peter Pan and the Wicked Witch of the West, whom the

should, as one commentator notes, make up for failing to take over the planet
last week.

enough.
