From the locals at the Goat and Compasses to the Wodehousian landlords of neighbouring estates - by way of the workers at Buggin's Brushesthe town's one concession to modernity - the place is suddenly abuzz with gossip and intrigue: daughters are groomed to catch the royal eyeoldrivalries are sharpeneddebate rages keenly within the TownCouncil about the most appropiate means of honouring the princely presence.Add to an already inflammable situation hunt saboteurs led by the appalling Judy Mustarda group ofsomewhat incompetent international terroristsSave the Badger campaignersa dubiously bearded guru and his chanting followersand the boomingbemedalled figure of General Mkubwathe prince's unusual aide-de-camp from the New Commonwealth who hoves up with a gun-toting bodyguardnurses an unrequited passion for the luckless local policewomanand longs to make an official visit to Lotts Road Power Stationand the scene is set for a comic extravaganza of hugely entertaining proportions.
