7:43Now PlayingIntrepid reporter Chris Serle from That's Life! attempts to unravel a mystery that has been confounding the residents of a quiet Reading street for three years. A practical joke epidemic has resulted in plastic flowers, rubber trees, painted empty milk bottles, stuffed birds and even mannequins masquerading as British Telecom engineers mysteriously appearing in gardens overnight.
All the neighbours deny being the eponymous prankster of Maldon Close, but they all have their chief suspects. Can Chris finally unmask the joker, and put an end to his reign of mild bemusement?
Clip taken from That's Life!, originally broadcast on BBC One, Sunday 28 June, 1981.
