In GF the garden owner, in every case, just happened to be going away for

It was cunningly arranged with an excuse that an average 4 year old would have
seen through.
The only question in the person's mind must have been which TV he/she would find
his/herself on when he/she returned. Purple living room wall or purple fence?

They would always return at 5.00pm., even Nelson Mandela arrived back at 5.
At 4.40 pm., there would always be major jobs that still needed doing.
There would always be a heavily loaded wheel barrow which could only be
pushed by Charlie requiring her to thrust her 'free range' chest out.

It did become very formulaic in the end and felt like stuffing yourself
on a whole box of chocolates at once. I found it quite interesting
from the pov of seeing what design they'd come up with but the whole
'tension' thing became a bit tiresome.

The whole tension thing drives almost every BBC TV programme.
I blame Challenge Anneke who may or may not have started the whole thing.

Damn, now you've mentioned another two frolicsome puppies in a sack
