BEHIND THE STORY with PHIL WHITMORE
“GAME OF STATUES” Originally called “STATUES”

‘Twas suggested that I call this story “Game Of Stones” which is a good title, but not quite what I was going for.

It ISN'T a parody of “Game Of Thrones”.

Its more parodying Sherlock Holmes, because its set in Victorian London, and the villain is calling himself Moriarty.

And I vaguely remember a Holmes movie called “A Game of Shadows”.

President Madokenu originally appeared in “Mr Custa & The Invasion of The Marigold Men”.

Also, Mr Custa’s autobiography is the same book that Mr Custa is writing at the beginning of the Radio story “The Legion of Time”.

Stone me!
