so you googgled your right no googling allowed

here another


THE FOLLOWING STORY CONTAINS THE NAMES OF TELEVISION PROGRAMMES OLD AND NEW. Fill in the gaps to complete the story. Each dash indicates one letter each. SOME POETIC LICENCE MAY BE REQUIRED !!!




This is the story of Peter and Jack, who lived with their mum Joy and father Edward at their home _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
which was a small farm on the _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ of the town.


They all enjoyed the _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ , and spent many _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ in the fields from _ _ _/ _ _ /
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ working hard just to survive. Times were hard especially during the winter.


One September day, their _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ was rushed into _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ with a bad case of _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _
and a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ after losing his clothes while skinny dipping.
As they had no car, the whole family went _ _ / _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ into the city. It was a very large hospital and was
_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ and they all ran in shouting “is there a _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ ?”.


“ You look very _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ said to his father. “It looks very busy but you are _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
to see the _ _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ , at only _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , doesn’t look old enough to look after you !!”


The doctor took them to a very old wing of the hospital which had a bad case of _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ and even a hole in the roof revealing the _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ .

Doctor _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ close look at Edwards condition and said “ I wouldn’t say you had _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ /
_ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ yet, or were ready to join the _ _ _ _ _ _ , so you can go”.

“_ _ _ _ _ _ , Doc” said Dad “I would _ _ _ _ _ _ _ to look after me and need to get out of here before we get
_ _ _ _ in this place.


It was very dark when they returned home that night , but the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the path showed them the way past the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ house to their front door .


After a couple of days dad was feeling much better and he went for a walk with Mum in the fields. They saw some
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ in the sky and a black and white _ _ _ _ _ _ sitting on a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ _ high up in a
nearby tree. Dad shouted to Mum to _ _ _ _ _ _ head as she walked under the tree. It was a lovely sunny day
“_ _ /_ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ /_ _ _ , said Dad as they continued their stroll and began to _ _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ from now if they would still live in the country .


They were a very _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ _ but both agreed they would almost certainly be together _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ _ /_ _ /
_ _ /_ _ _ _ .
