  • Tentacle City Part 4 (episode 108)
    Apr 30 2024

    We are playing Tentacle City by Willow Palacek! The people of Tentacle Garden City are going about their ordinary and, let's be honest, faintly ridiculous lives. Little do they realise that they are about to come under attack from hideous tentacles! We are going to find out who survives and who is dragged under by the horrid protuberances.

    In this episode, the Women's Institute encounter a weird waitress, the neighbourhood watch have car trouble, the underage skate kids run into The Law, and the community theatre head for the pub.
