Send us a textWhen we last left Captain Flashman, Eve Arden, Dr Krakow and Captain Credo, they’d been captured by the evil Queen Cerulean and her Chief Magician Carl. While Eve and Captain Credo were sentenced to evil kitchen duties, Captain Flashman’s was drugged with both Forgetium, the drug of forgetfulness and Amourae, the love drug. Eve and Captain Credo then correctly guessed that Captain Flashman had been drugged and attempted to poison Queen Cerulean to free Captain Flashman from her evil nefarious grip. After the plot failed, Cerulean ordered Carl to punish Eve with his electric whip. Will the double-drugging of Captain Flashman doom him to be the love slave to Queen Cerulean? Will Eve survive Carl’s electricity based retribution? And will Captain Credo languish in a perpetual state of evil kitchen prep? Listen in to find out the answer to these and many other questions.This episode stars:Gene Abella as Captain CredoMelyssa Ade as Little Chester and Queen VulkarenSam Agro as The Announcer and Chief Magician CarlSean Browning as Captain Flashman and Major TomDave Healey as The Stuffed-Up-Sponsor and the GuardLaura Kyswaty as Queen CeruleanVicki Jenkins as Dr KrakowAnn McDougall as Eve ArdenMusic by Jeff RosenthalProduced, Directed and Written by Dave HealeyRecorded, Mixed and Soundscape Design by Dave HealeyIntro and Outro designed by Dave Healey and Dylan Shropshire.

All’s Fair in Love and Universal Domination
Send us a textAfter crashing on Vulpolis, a city suspended in mid air, Captain Flashman, Prince Belfast, Dr Krakow and Eve were taken prisoner by Vulkaren, the Queen of the Vulture People. There Eve was sentenced to be the companion of Vulkaren while the others were forced to work in the Bird Cage, the busiest yet most under-staffed restaurant in the city. Through careful planning, all four of our heroes were able to escape the evil clutches of Vulkaren, leaving  her for dead on her own throne room floor. When Captain Flashman and Eve became separated from Prince Belfast and Dr Krakow, they were forced to return to the throne room only to find Vulkaren alive and holding a ray gun. Will Captain Flashman and Eve die at the hands of Queen Vulkaren? Will Dr Krakow and Prince Belfast arrive time to save them? Or will the customary ‘something unexpected’ happen again to save our heroes?
