When pupils from a school for gifted children visit the show, Pinky smells a rat, and also an invasion by aliens! The studio has actually been invaded by children from Sir Percival's old school, who are paired off with staff to learn all about television.

Whilst Perky enjoys mentoring a child who he treats as a personal slave, Pinky is utterly convinced that the 'aliens' are going to take over the world! When their headmaster, Sir Pellinore, makes an appearance, it's obvious that things aren't quite what they seem and maybe Pinky's suspicions aren't far from the truth.

When Wilberforce volunteers as safety officer for the TV station, Pinky and Perky's action-packed Stunt Special Show is under threat. Initially they cooperate with Wilberforce's rules, ditching danger in favour of safer stunts and replacing risky tricks with more reliable routines. However, when new editions of the safety regulations keep appearing (helpfully supplied by Vera and Eric), Wilberforce goes safety crazy and bans practically everything.

Soon Pinky and Perky are stuck with a selection of really boring acts for their show. Can they keep their studio audience from becoming bored too?
