Transcript

Clive Handforth

I'm a little man, sitting in a can.

Clive Handforth

Ohhhhhh. Ohhhhh!

Clive Handforth

And I thought my life had hit rock bottom when they told me about saturated fat.

Larry Da Vinci

Um, hello?

Clive Handforth

But now I've got no Factory and nowhere to go.

Larry Da Vinci

I say...?

Clive Handforth

If only there was someone to deliver me from this putrid trough of tribulation!

Clive Handforth

Oh hello. My name's Clive. Clive Handforth.

Clive Handforth

Welcome to the Factory Of A Better Tomorrow, such as it is.

Larry Da Vinci

Now look here Clive, what's the sticky wicket on the Sackbots?

Clive Handforth

Oh right, looking to build an army, are you?

Clive Handforth

Indulge me as I trudge down memory lane.

Clive Handforth

There was a time when we printed the most accurate calendars in all the land.

Clive Handforth

Printed calendars and built huge spaceships.

Clive Handforth

A simple life, we weren't miserable.

Clive Handforth

Well, things could have been better, I suppose.

Clive Handforth

We got by.

Clive Handforth

But then The Negativitron arrived and attacked!

Clive Handforth

I was ravaged and discarded.

Larry Da Vinci

Yes yes Clive, but the army?

Clive Handforth

The Sackbots are all enslaved inside the Factory.

Clive Handforth

You'll have to get in and set them free.
