Re: Caption Competition
That last winning caption, well, again, it simply came to me.
Anyway, I thank you all, and so here's the next one....
Yes, I realiz/se this is not an illustration. But I did a "manual search" of this topic thread and I did discover a photo was used once before (by moonraker back in July 2010!) for this caption game, so I thought why not another?
Yes, I'm sure you can probably guess which 1978 FF TV episode this was (or might have been) from, but let's see what new dialogue or situation you can come up with for this one [bonus point if you can guess which FAMOUS FIVE ANNUAL this photo came from!]:
[Allow me the first volley. Don't worry, it will be exempted from the final selection process....]

Your turn.....ANNE: "We've been sitting here for almost an hour, and we still haven't seen any birds!"
GEORGE: "Don't worry, Anne, these woods are usually teeming with some---"
.....DICK: "Julian, what's that big black one way over there in front of us?"
..JULIAN: "Oh, that's just a jackdaw carrying something for its nest---wait! Dick, are you still wearing your watch---?"

Re: Caption Competition
Having devoured George's head, Timmy was wondering whether he could manage Anne's for dessert.

Dick was quietly confident that the clothes modelling contract he had signed for Man From C&A would not be picked up on by the others....

"I wonder where Julie, the love of my life has gone," thought Dick, sorrowfully. "At least I have a photo of her and me!"

Where is everyone for the Enid Blyton day picnic? Oh I see Nigel is leading the way!
If I could live here on this secret island always and always and always, and never grow up at all, I would be quite happy
