    #13 - So Near and Yet So Far

    S1:E134/3/1992

    Prices Slashed sees Gurder denouncing the 'Demon', and is startled into dropping his lighted cigarette into the petrol.

They drive off and, after a number of close calls, a police car begins pursuing them. The first scene of the first episode then repeats, this time showing Masklin and Dorcas cutting the police cars wiring while the Nomes in the truck hide.

As they watch Concorde fly over, Dorcas remarks that it would be easier to drive than a lorry because it only has three wheels.
