A zany zigzag of puzzles and quizzes featuring The Scaffold
with special guest Patrick Moore
and Wendy Padbury, The Fourmost
Inspector Boniface Investigates
and the answer to:
Hiram Hamburger Jr is a remarkable man! He works in New York and travels at least 25 miles every day. The funny thing is that he doesn't use underground, air travel, wheel transport of any kind. He doesn't cross over water, ride on an animal, walk, or run. He passes no streets, traffic, scenery, yet lots of people travel with him. Who is he?
