Who could I contact?

Of course the other information that was dished up on Grim Tales was who had made it.

Once I googled up "InitialTV" + "Malcolm Gerrie" I hit on a link which had someone's contact. Marisa Guagenti had an entry for her work with InitialTV on the Production Managers Association website.

Marisa actually responded to my email within a day! Wanted to know if I was someone she actually knew, and why I wanted Malcolm Gerrie's contact details.

When I had explained I was just an ordinary consumer out to buy a product that didn't exist yet she was happy to let me know of Malcolm's new production company, Whizz Kid Entertainment and even pass on the name of the person I should be trying to speak with.

And now it's a waiting game. Whizz Kid Entertainment internal email sent me to the right mailbox, from which I received a charmingly worded out of office reply. The next link in the chain is currently on holidays and will return to work on Tuesday 28th August. In the meantime they hope the sun is shining where I am. Which it does in the daytime, but may not always be such a great thing. Some of us could actually use quite a bit of rain.

Finally, Marisa sent me a warning. She claims this is going to be a hard quest, and really what better sort could there be. Apparently, it isn't making the shows that is complicated it is getting them distributed in a copyright protected format with agreed royalty streams and approvals.

Dear Turnip,

Is it true you taste good in stews?

I would go so far as to say that when used in stew the flavour of Turnip is masked by the other ingredients.
So I would say Turnip tastes better in stew than most other ways of preparing and eating it.
