Episode prize

Image of the prize up for grabs in this episode: Alex Horne’s 3-foot tall stone lion named Mother.

The prize in this episode was Alex Horne’s 3-foot tall stone lion named ‘Mother’. He claims that he wasn’t allowed pets when he was growing up, because of fears, phobia, and lack of tolerance of other living things by his father, so he was instead bought a 3 foot tall stone lion, which he used to take it on holiday. Lisa states that it’s the worst prize she’s seen in her life, and Ron adds that the only thing worse is Alex’s childhood itself.
