MARION
WATSON
- The family enter a historic vehicle run, from John O'Groats to Land's End.
Charley
Temple is a reporter for the BBC World news, and Jill
Bird.
She
knows Marion and Jimmy Watson, from her early days as a junior
camerawoman, and lately, because of their Loch
Ness adventure, when she becomes a 'Keeper.'
Charley
is keen on sports coverage, having investigated the Panamanian
Running Man. She is more than pleased to be offered this assignment,
which she sees as more of a holiday, and a catchup with Miss Ocean. The
story veers into more of a scandal, when the blackmail attempt of
Wave-Rider and Six-Pack is revealed by the Magic Dinobot.
Charley
follows the Watson family to Newquay, for the CamperFest and Bug Jam.
Where she witnesses the outstanding performance of Marion's surfing bus, Volkswagen
Camper van, a truly versatile cherished historic vehicle.
