This episode almost doesn't go on the air. Seth Poole, the station engineer, pulls the studio plug.

The kids all have to take drama lessons. The class is held on the Link Set and everyone is wearing tights.

Features several sketches in THE Network Canteen with Ruth Buzzi as Lois.

Kevin Somers spends half the show with a sink drain-plug in his mouth (that looks just like a pacifier). hehe

Christine gives a dramatic interpretation on the Link Set. Ross is not amused.

Dungeon scene with Ruth Buzzi chained up.

Truly classic television at its best!

Roger Price and Geoffrey Darby are indeed comic television pioneers!

Also featured a live performance by Max Webster.
