23/08/2005: "UNDERWATER COMEDY FILM......Rated (G)"

......a scene from a comedy film where Captain C Weed (Ron Isbell) tests a shark repelling coat.

(Narration first test above water is on Jocelyn.....which seems to have the right effect. Now to try it underwater...... on a sleeping shovel nose shark.......PRESTO......(shark races away), now to test it on a dangerous species......like this one..... with teeth.......PRESTO AGAIN......Uh Oh......LOOK OUT!

(Reverse action a Captain C. Weed leaps from the water backwards and goes into shock, shaking all over.......) Fade to black.

Another sequence featured C Weed assisted by Jocelyn, fighting (rubber) sea snakes which later attacked him. Blobs of tomato sauce were substitutes for blood on his throat. Kids loved this scene and recognised the sauce instantly.
