No, that was an attraction with sets/props etc, not a shop. Though it did have a shop in it right at the end and no PINKY PUNKY IS NOT THERE!!!
He is with an associate of mine who collects old nostalgic British pop culture things and has recipes which can reproduce old favourite snack items.

You've mentioned this friend before Bobby. The one who thinks that he can make up old Pot Noodle recipes as if they were bought brand new from a shop, that friend?
Well, do we know that he has the original Pinky Punky or is it just one of the ones that you can buy from the Internet?
Because, it you think about it. There's usually at least one back-up prop when you are shooting something, just in case something happens to the main prop. There are sometimes multiple copies just to be on the safe side.
How do we know that the original Pinky Punkie is what your friend has Bobby?

Yes that is him!! He’s got the recipes to make old pot noodles (along with other nostalgic favourites) and he sells them off in repros of the old packaging! It is definitely the original Pinky Punky that he’s got as he has all’t proper paperwork for it. He won’t let me play with it though.

So you're telling me, right, that you've got this mate who sells knock-offs of legitimate intellectual properties; taste, texture, tub - total twin! to people who can't get ahold of the actual originals that they want. And he, this guy who puts together the dead ringers, he owns one of the most iconic hard to get hold of toy hammers that can speak that this world has ever seen. And, and this is the kicker, AND he's got receipts to prove that it's legitimate?
And then, to top it all off. He won't let you hold it and inspect it?
You're avin' a laugh right now Bobby, ain't cha?

No I’m telling you the gods honest!
I’m fact he’s a lot like David Smith in regards to owning all of these grand items of memorabilia and never letting me even look at them.

Well I believe you believe them Bobby, so that's something
I just think that's a dodgy story if ever I've heard one
Not too long to go now until we get to see Pinky Punky in all his calamitous crafty cockroachiness

Are you absolutely SURE that Pinky Punky is in this one, Siggy?
Ricky thinks that Susan Twist will be revealed as Susan Foreman tonight, but he thinks that about every episode.

Midnight is a bit touch and go for me Bobby. It's a Friday, I'm not doubt a few sheets to the wind by then and then there's the idea of watching a TV show which might not be up to scratch.
That's probably exactly how I tolerated the last two episodes come to think of it!
This one looks nice and bright and metalayered with bubbles and personal zones and stuff and so I think I might enjoy it. Like the Happiness Patrol stuff, but without Bertie Bassett and instead Pinky Punky
And my girl Ellie is away on holiday just now (It seems) and so she wont be doing a reaction straight away and so I get a bit more time to relax. It might very well be a coffee and croissant effort in the morning (Maybe some soldiers and fruit too!) letting me take the grind off watching these stupid midnight releases that nobody in the US is watching
So, as always, I don't know
You got a shift on tomorrow or do you think you could push through and see Pinky Punky in person?

Well that’s a bit badly timed of Ellie isn’t it?! Having a holiday right slap bang in the middle of the Doctor Who season?!! What kind of Doctor Who reviewer does that?!!
I do have a shift on tomorrow but it is a late shift so that means that I don’t start until quarter past 2 in the afternoon, so I’ll probably be stopping up for a bit and maybe having a couple of drinks myself.

It was quite rude of Ellie if it's the case but she might have been fired because she's not towing the line as much as Bum Boy McBummerson Bobby
