Episode Summary
The loft conversion of the Rush house having been completed, Dudley is rediscovering his first love by painting book illustrations for 'Alice in Wonderland'; at the moment he's at work on 'The Mad Hatter's Tea Party' with the help of his daughters, Jacqui and Susan, dressed in character as the Mad Hatter and Alice respectively. The White Rabbit is rather small, however. Dudley's eccentric sister Kate has found him a more suitable one, but she lives at Brighton and its too big to post. Duncan, meanwhile, is planning to move house from South Hampstead to West Hampstead on Saturday. He balks at the removal firm's quote of 250, and decides to hire a van and do it himself. Wilma doesn't fancy helping him hump furniture around, so he goes to the Rush house to enlist the help of Dudley, Jacqui and Susan with the bribe of a moth-eaten armchair and carpet for the studio. Come the day, Dudley cons Duncan into making a detour to Brighton to pick up the White Rabbit, and they park the van on the seafront. Whilst Susan and Jacqui change into bikinis for a quick swim and to indulge in a little sunbathing on the beach, Dudley and Duncan walk to Kate's house; she works in wholesale novelties, and is having problems with a batch of South Korean whoopie cushions when they arrive. Kate goes to fetch the rabbit and invites them to stay for tea, offering to whip up a few fairy cakes. Duncan inadvertently gets a foam-rubber Danger Mouse mask stuck to his head with 'miracle glue', but this proves to be the least of his worries when the girls arrive with the news that the van has been stolen together with all his possessions.moreless
