Zany humour with a trio of do-gooders

Graeme, Tim and Bill are benefactors to a society, available to do anything, anywhere and at any time to help humanity, Taking the wierdest assignments, they find themselves guarding the Crown Jewels, rescuing London from the advance of a giant kitten, and in other bizarre situations. Sometimes they cook up their own world improvement schemes and attempt to put them into action. Energetically charging around on a three-seater bicycle (a 'trandem'), the three form an unlikely team.

Tim - A weedy royalist sporting a Union jack waitcoat.

Graeme - A mad scientist type.

Bill - An unkempt, long-haired, bearded socialist-cum-cynic.
