Who Needs Friends, Nelson Nutmeg?

Who Needs Friends, Nelson Nutmeg? introduces the characters from the family entertainment film, Who Killed Nelson Nutmeg? (2015) and tells how the Misfit Gang first become friends on holiday at Nelson's Retreat Holiday Park on the Jurassic Coast in England. Nelson Nutmeg is the camp's mascot. A hyperactive, six-foot squirrel dressed like a naval captain from history, his main trick is nudging little kids into the swimming pool when they're not looking. Billie (11) thinks he is a total no-no! She's too old for his childish shenanigans. Why would she ever want to do the Squirrel Shake or the Nutty Dance! She's way too cool for that! She's a leader, in a rush to grow up. When she meets fellow cynics, Shiv (11), The Colonel (11) and Woody (7.75) (don't tell anyone, but Woody still hero-worships Nelson Nutmeg) the holiday becomes fun. They laugh off Shiv's farts. They meet and defeat The Gorillas. They go sheep racing. Billie is delighted when Woody starts calling her older brother, Swindon, Sweetcorn by mistake. Swindon (15 acting like a 5 year old), is obsessed with discovering aliens. They all think he's a harmless nerd but wouldn't it be a brilliant scam to fool him into thinking he's actually made contact with aliens! The Misfit Gang work together to construct an UFO aerial to fool him, with disastrous consequences. Swindon gets so excited when he believes he is actually listening to aliens, he rides his bike over the edge of one of the enormous Jurassic cliffs. Of course, the Misfit Gang get punished - in the hardest way possible. They are banned from seeing one another. The holiday's gone flat! They just want to go home... and then Woody gets accused of stealing. In a climatic chase, the gang are re-united but only after Nelson Nutmeg comes to the rescue. Perhaps Nelson Nutmeg isn't so bad, after all!
