Most people have more than one room in there house, but not this pair of Gumballs! Henry Willows and his son Billy Willows, played by Reece Dinsdale, find themselves confined to a singular room. But that does not prevent them from getting into all sorts of scrapes. Firstly, Thaw decides he is going to go on a date and teach his son to drive, his son is taking his exams at the local amatuer dramtics. Thaw thinks his son is taking drugs and starts spying on him. Thaw dons a grey cardigan and Dinsdale has thick 80's hair. Its side splitting stuff from start to finish. Dinsdale crashed his dads car and the police come round. The show ends with Matthew and Henry playing Buckaroo with no clothes on. Watch out for a continuity error 12 minutes in. The camera is on Thaw who is wearing a caridigan in a single room. The camera switches to Dinsdale and then goes back to Thaw, who has gone! The camera switches back to Dinsdale, then again back to Thaw, who is now back but dressed as Norman Wisdom and smoking a pipe. The camera returns to Dinsdale and then back to Thaw, who is back to normal.moreless
