Special guest storyteller and puppeteer Andy Lawrence from Theatre of Widdershins provides this week's brand new tale. For the cave people of the Oogadugga Oogadugga Oogadugga clan, Stone Age life is comfortable—while the fire keeps going. The fire going out would be a disaster, as none of them know how to make it.

The story was conceived and written by Andy Lawrence, and is read here by Matt Heald.
