Pet Shop Girls...

This week, we find Trisha helping out kindly biology teacher Mr Rankin in her lunchbreak, and giving him a hand with the menagerie of pets he keeps in his department. Judy drops in, keen to find material to submit to the school magazine - and also to keep Trisha company. Judy takes a shine to one of Mr Rankin's cuddly hamsters - but is it really a good idea to take the slippery rodent out of its cage?

This is a fun episode centered on the two girls, and we get to see a new area of the school - not to mention a couple of teachers we'd not seen before. We're all rooting for a happy ending, and it's good to see the girls using their ingenuity. The plot of this reminds me of a similar early episode of Only Fools and Horses a few years later, with similar results!
