SCENE ONE: (PRE -TITLES). EXHIBITION HALL.
(SFX: A ROWDY ROUND OF APPLAUSE, WHOOPS, ALIEN NOISES)
GEOFFREY:
Welcome, welcome, thank you very much - you join us at the Inter-G Cruiser Show at the Sirius Exhibition Station.
(SFX: CROWD QUIETENS, STILL OCCASIONAL CHEERS AND WHOOPS)
GEOFFREY:
In today’s show Timbo the Ferret will be test-driving the new Kith Sunstorm...
TIMBO:
We’ll be deciding where it goes on the ‘funky board’.
(SFX: CROWD CHEERS AND WHOOPS ‘FUNKY BOARD! FUNKY BOARD!’)
O’REILLEY:
And I’ll be looking at the latest in quark drives!
GEOFFREY:
-and boring us all rigid. Later on we have ‘celebrity in a budget-conscious spaceship’, as Garfield Lemper feels the punishing escape velocity of the Umbriel Slipstream. So strap yourselves in, engage thrust, and prepare, for... Max Warp!
