What do we call it?!?

The situation: Strangely disturbed Uncle Gordon knows nothing about anything that's going on in the haunted house 'Britannia' at 41 The Cul de Sac, London WC1 - not the money-laundering by neighbour LordLeave-it-to-me, the blackmail of his best friend Tony, Fat Johnny's peculiarly sexual predilection for Crispy Duck, Cherie the Scouser's crystals and hairdos, the economy, the financial crisis, the backbench rebellion, who the Poor are and what to do next.

Former resident Tony has moved into a much bigger house with his friend JP Morgan, from where he plans to write his memoirs Legacy, Schmegacy - I'm rich. But too lazy to get down to the job, 'Teflon' Tony gossips with his disabled wife Cherie....

.......and although she has nothing at all to say, Shabby Cherie has written her memoirs, in which she hints that Uncle Gordon's memory is selectively patchy and he's no good anyway because Tony told her every night over their Tesco Finest Lasagne & Chips that Uncle Gordon would never stop local wide-boy Dave Moron from knocking down the house even though he hasn't got any planning permissions or as yet an architect's design for the new one.

During the action, Lord 'Bagman' Leaveittome keeps coming in via the back door of No 41 and throwing fivers all over the place while singing We're in the Money. Well-known to the local Constabulary, Bagman continues to proclaim his complete innocence, about which (he tells embarassed Andy McMarr) Uncle Gordon knew everything from Day One and therefore must be guilty. He too says that Tony Teflon told him Uncle Gordon doesn't stand a chance against Moron's bulldozers, but Cherie Teflon says Tony never told him that because Tony told her so and he never lies, an assertion that convinces Leaveittome of the woman's serious cerebral disability. To keep Gordon in line every time his obsession with evicting everyone resurfaced, Tony kept Johhny Bulimic in the attic, even though Johnny kept stealing the furniture and shagging the cleaning-lady. But now Tony's new best friend 'JP' keeps him in £4 million celebrity houses, Fat Johnny has been abandoned to his fate as the sad bloke eating forty-six courses on his own by the toilets at local eaterie The Cantonese Pig. Johnny is desperate: he's sold all the furniture and can't move about without a crane, so he too writes some memoirs in which he reveals that he wanted to kill Gordon and eat him, but Tony was scared of Gordon and so he Johnny was forced to turn to Chinese food instead and become a Bulimic throwing up just often enough to maintain his weight at 32 stone.
