### The New Caretaker / "Where's Me Booook!?"

What with Yeti Uncle John often being up in space - Bettina gives Paul the details of a caretaker who used to work on her Estate...

For that matter will Cuthbert make it through the night!?!

This episode sees Paul visiting Bettina only to find out that the house has recently become robotically automated; also Wifey Jo play a card game with Cuthbert.

### Long Lost Cousin Algernon And The Very Big Revelation!

More clips from the archives and recent conversations that don't have a home!!
