BETTER BED THAN DEAD!

A firm that makes beds, ripe for the big takeover? Timmy and Sid can't go wrong this time can they? Not with Sid at the helm and Timmy learning the ropes at floor level.

Unfortunately they haven't reckoned with the Rightberk brothers who run the firm - into the ground, mostly - and Fred Umbrage, abrasive Shop Steward of the S.C.A.B.s (Sedan Chair and Bedmakers' Union) who takes an unaccountable dislike to Timmy. Not forgetting Professor Nuttibarm, bed designer extraordinary, and all those ladies: Pearl, Carole, Prudence, Mrs Collier with the broken bed, Jean of the Bed-Testing Centre, Rachel, Nurse Waddley, and Nitya Pullova, the Union's Comrade from Omsk.

Will Timmy and Sid be able to keep bed-making on the level?
