They are chasing a misguided magician, The Great Gerardo (alias Gerard Blooth) and his beautiful assistant, Dastardina Dangle, a mistress of disguise! Blooth is desperate to gain the stones power.So, it's a battle against time as Royston and his brave team confront the devilish Queen Po of the Oom Poo Poo tribe - (alias criminally insane underwear manufacturer Pauline Murcheson) who cruelly abuses her gentle daughter, Karina, in her attempts to achieve the greatest prize of all...

But who will get to the stone first...?
