SYNOPSIS

In a few minutes, you will have the chance to to witness a new Summer Olympic Games event. The sun shines on Nothing Hill and, just as always, the competition is to proceed with the most distinguished sense of British a fair-play. But look carefully, because our Olympic Games take place at lawn-level, at one fiftieth of the normal size. The audience is friendly and the athletes are toys. In these miniature Olympic Games, there are no complicated rules because participation is what counts. But watch, that catcher has a mean look about him… will he decided to ruin everything ?
