'This is a local shop for local people. There's nothing for you here!' Welcome to Royston Vasey! Your visit coincides with:
- Herr Lipp's German exchange visit!
- Papa Lazarou's freak show!
- A nosebleed epidemic!
If shopping's on your agenda, Reenie and Vinnie are in charge of the charity shop, Tubbs and Edward are looking to find a 'no-tail' mate for son David, and friendly butcher Hilary Briss is holding a soiree for patrons of his 'special stuff'.
Perhaps it's a job you're looking for? Cathy Carter-Smith has just found Pauline and Mickey new roles at the Burger Me fast food restaurant And there are plenty of other lovely locals to meet while you're here - like Val, Harvey and the girls, Les McQueen and his rock'n' roll past, Larry Vaughn the foul-mouthed mayor, Barbara the taxi driver, and many more. So welcome to town. You'll never leave...
