Infamous 5, an old idea I know.

THE FAMOUS 5 ARE TALKING TO A POLICE MAN AND A LADY.

POLICE

Right then officer Cobber and this is Mrs Sumpter from a government agency.

GEORGE

I say wizard chaps, a government agent we really have found a spy!

JULIAN

Shut up George you're just a girl. Any way we followed the mysterious man with the beard all around Black Rock island.

DICK

We just new he was a Russian or working class.

JULIAN

Shut up Dick or I'll kick you in the pills again.

ANNE

Oh July you're so commanding when you're violent.

POLICE

You see there's been a bit of a misunderstanding, I'm with the local child protection unit of Amblshire police.

LADY

And the government department I represent is social services. When did you kids last see your parents?

JULIAN

We're on summer holiday.

LADY

It's November.

ANNE

Oh Dick we have been on holiday for rather a long time.

GEORGE

4 years now.

JULIAN

You want to be treated like a boy George? How about a manly kick up the bum?

POLICE

Now none of that.

DICK

We wanted to go home, but Julian wouldn't let us.

POLICE

And what have you kids been living on?

FAMOUS 5

Picnics with lashings and lashings of ginger beer.

POLICE

How do you pay for them?

JULIAN

Ruddy cheeked farmers wives give them to us.

DICK

After you pull a knife on them, oh do your worst Julian you f**king psychopath I don't care anymore.

JULIAN

Well at least I never actually killed any one.

GEORGE BURSTS INTO TEARS.

ANNE

You really are a swine Julian, you know George only killed Mrs Midgeon because you said it would make a man of her.

GEORGE SOBBING

I wanted to be the man you needed Anne, I've always loved you.

LADY

Oh dear God, you've been running rampant in the Devon country side. Stalking men with beards and terrorising farmers wives.

POLICE

At least tell us what you did with Mrs Smidgeon's body.

JULIAN

The same thing we did with our parents bodies,

FAMOUS FIVE Timmy, you greedy dog.

TIMMY LOOKS RUEFUL.

LADY

You killed your parents, oh PC Cobbler I'm going to be sick.

JULIAN

We didn't, one of us couldn't hold their scrumpy.

DICK

You monster Julian you made me get on that combine harvester when I was drunk.

POLICE

Right you lot are under arrest.

OTHER POLICE OFFICERS COME IN TAKE THEM AWAY.

LADY

Dear God PC Cobbler that's the most horrible story I ever heard.

PC

It gets worse the ritual murder and rape of one Violet Elizabeth Botts.

LADY

Oh that's just Williams.
