Episode of Series “Famous Five”.
In “Five run away together”, the children run away from Kirrin Cottage, when the bad Mrs. Stick, who is looking after them for a week, threatens to lock Timmy in the shed. They escape to Kirrin Island, where all is not as it should be. “Five have a wonderful time” introduces us to a snake-charmer called Miss Slither, and a fire-eater called Alfredo. While on their caravanning holiday, the children find that they must enlist the help of these new friends when they uncover a mystery at nearby Faynight’s Castle.
