Classic episode which predicted Quorn & environmental damage by industry. It's also known as "The one with the maggots!"
lyrics
‘Twas in the town of Llanfairfach
Where darkened times did choose
To encase the place with the loss of life
And the death of the minor Hughs
‘Twas near the global chamicals plant
His body lay serene
But his passing brought a mystery
As it glowed a deathly green
Oh green green the death
But beware the final breath
Beware the wrath of the angry boss
Oh green green the death
I dwelled within the Wholeweal
The nuthutch to another
We lived in our community
Sister, father, brother
And as we ate fungal protein
A message from the mine
A man they called dai evens
On his life they had called time
Oh green green the death
But beware the final breath
Beware the wrath of the angry boss
Oh green green the death
The green death’s what we called it
Formed from the chemical age
And carried by monster insects
In their larval stage
Professor Jones searched for a cure
He tried and tried and tried
But he caught the emerald curse
And very nearly died
Oh green green the death
But beware the final breath
Beware the wrath of the angry boss
Oh green green the death
Through an act of serendipity
an antidote was discovered
And Nancy she made sandwiches
As Professor Jones recovered
We all ate fungal protein
Its tastier than meaty faggots
And we all recall the episode
The one with the giant maggots
Oh green green the death
But beware the final breath
Beware the wrath of the angry boss
Oh green green the death
