Description

Bringing up a baby would surely be children's play for The Five. How hard could it possibly be?!

When the doorbell rings one Saturday afternoon, the last thing the Five were expecting to find on their doorstep was a baby... But the Five are next of kin to Cousin Rupert and his wife. So, when they find themselves in a spot of bother and are destined for a short spell behind bars, Anne, Dick, George, and Anne are the first port of call.

First, it's the fear and the tiredness that kicks in. They are terrified at being responsible for this new life and have no idea if they're doing it right. Why is it crying? They use Dr Google constantly, who, whatever the situation, offers the same range of advice from 'don't worry about it' to 'rush her to the A&E'. 'Why is she crying?' they constantly ask. 'Why?' It keeps them up all night every night, until they are reduced to walking ghosts, haunted by a numb and impotent fury.

Is this an adventure too far for our Five?
