Worzel's Nephew
Prismark103 February 2024
John and Sue are going on their holidays with their dad. Even though they seemed to have arrived at Scatterbrook farm originally for their holidays.

With the caravan empty. Worzel Gummidge plans to settle himself in while the kids are away.

Only Mr Braithwaite has hired a new farmhand. A young lad who has come up from London with an emphasis on cockney rhyming slang.

He turns out to be Pickles Bramble, Worzel's naughty nephew. Worzel is pleased to see Pickles only to find himself being bullied by his nephew. He has to do Pickles labouring tasks at the farm. Cleaning out the pigsty for example. Worzel is also at a loss with all the cockney rhyming slang. He is also hungry, Pickles eats all the food.

Worzel needs to get rid of his obnoxious nephew.

I felt with the kids gone, this one lost its charm. Pickles the punkish unpleasant nephew persona was very much in vogue at the time. A stereotype of the early 1980s cockney delinquent.
