Further details
Despite planning various attention-grabbing stunts, agent Kenny presents the perfect opportunity for Gemma and Jeff to achieve notoriety at the local village fun.
The whole village turns out for the fun run in aid of Nell's "suffering monkeys" charity, no one looking quite so ludicrous as Gemma and Jeff. Dressed as a banana and a bunch of grapes, they set out at their promotional work with gusto, but it turns out the sweets they're giving out aren't quite as innocuous as they seem and the whole village finds itself falling prey to some most unexpected side effects.
