[END OF SEGMENT] 65 00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000 A: Lightly Used News.... 66 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000 'The ramblings of Johnny Turnip - 67 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:13,000 Man warns we should all be very afraid of what lies beneath Abergavenny' by Tim Butters from the Abergavenny Chronicle on Monday, the 25th of March. 68 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:23,040 A local man who claims to have found the entrance to Abergavenny's secret network of tunnels has since returned from that underground labyrinth with a 69 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,040 fantastical story to tell. 70 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:39,040 Semi-professional long distance runner, Johnny Turnip, alongside his mates Big Tony and Puerto Rico Paul, accidentally stumbled across a gateway to the tunnels during their quest to trap and tame a fairy. 71 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:48,040 Turnip claims that after following a hedgehog he calls the Oracle of Spikes from the Swan Meadows to the castle, hoping it would lead them to a fairy lair, they discovered. 72 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,040 The entrance to the hidden realms of Abergavenny. 73 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:57,040 Turnip said, if you think sticking to the 20 mile-hour speed limit is hard, try following an hedgehog. 74 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,040 It's a slow and laboured process, particularly when you've no idea where it's leading you. 75 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:07,040 I don't know if you've spent a lot of time around hedgehogs, but they seem to have a massive attitude! 76 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,040 It kept stopping, sniffing the air, turning around, giving us the eyeball. 77 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,040 Prickly customers in every sense of the word. 78 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:24,040 To make matters worse, three grown men intently following a hedgehog single file through the town in the early hours is good attract attention, especially with Big Tony's history of badger baiting. 79 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,040 Tony, I thought you were a good guy. 80 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,040 You've let us all down. 81 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,040 K: I'm shocked. 82 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:37,040 It's a good job the police are either all keeping a stern eye on their Twitter feeds or loading up in Maccy D's, or we'd have been nicked for acting like dickheads! 83 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:42,040 That's something that happened a lot back in the day, I can tell you. Recalled Turnip affectionately. 84 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:54,040 Turnip explained that after about three torturous hours of walking like zombies in the hedgehog's trail, it led them to the entrance of the castle and then shocked them all by simply rolling on its back and dying. 85 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,040 K: Oh God. 86 00:05:55,040 --> 00:06:03,040 I couldn't believe it, said Turnip. We followed that bloody thing for hours and had the cheek to die on us. Zero respect. 87 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,040 K: Jesus Christ! 88 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:14,040 Big Tony was fuming and went to kick it...but every living thing deserves respect, so I carefully put it inside a plastic bag and threw it in a nearby hedge. 89 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,040 K: Oh God. 90 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:24,040 Turnip added, now that the only lead to find a fairy who was as dead as a duck, we needed to use our heads and think on our feet. 91 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:36,040 Not soon after they began to argue over who was calling the shots, when Turnip claims he noticed a green light hovering over a patch of leaves inside the castle walls. It was another sign from my ancestors, claimed Turnip. 92 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:48,040 It was like a will o' the wisp beckoning us onwards. So we scaled the castle walls like we were teenagers again, but with bigger bellies and more mental health problems, and jumped down the other side to meet our destiny. 93 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:55,040 K:
