Locusts by DICK SHARPLES with lyrics by DICK SHARPLES music by IAN GOURLAY
The Nesbitts have arrived - every policeman in Lancashire is thrown into a panic! They're like a plague of locusts - the monthly crime figures rise by nine per cent when they move into a district. The Nesbitts have 'something in mind', the police suspect it. The result - Locusts, an hilarious, irreverent, account of the clash between law and disorder.
