Tenth Entry in the Charles Daniels Unauthorized Programme Guide O' Booze Serial K - The Dustbin Vacation on Earth - Episodes: 1. Wrong End 4. The Bin Of Sorrow 2. The Dustbins 5. The Wanking Sally 3. Day Of Wrecking 6. Flashpaper The swinging scene is London 2167, party capitol of the cosmos. The Dustbins have set their sights on taking a vacation there as France has too many french people. Unfortunately for the earth the Dustbins have rather strange ideas on tourism, for instance when they are annoyed at the exchange rate of 12 Billion West Fargo Bank Notes to 1 British Pound they decide to take over all the banks and enforce Fargonian currency, thus making them the richest beings on Earth. When they get sick off some tainted overly greasy fish 'n chips and get violently ill off cheap take away curry and kebabs they deploy a hostile action to replace all English food establishments with "Fresh 'n Blobby" the only restaurant still active on Fargo, with cuisine totally based on strange Dustbin mutants. Even though it is horrid, blobby, gloopy, and disgusting it is still much than McDonald's food which dominates 22nd Century terran cuisine. The Dustbins then decide that even though London is a groovy place the inhabitants just are too dirty, arrogant, and self-assured for their taste, so they set out a plan for the creation of Dustmen - HUMAN DUSTBINS! By removing various body parts the Dustbins create walking zombie Dustmen who can climb stairs for them and finally clean up the rooms of the countless millions of children who kept their rooms flithy on the second or third floor of their homes, where it was previously safe from the Dustbins. The process of making the english Dustbin-like creatures works doubly well as their own feelings of sexual guilt and frustration make them perfect candidates to lose their naughty bits once and for all. Not surprisingly the Dustbins decide that a duller less interesting human populace would be easier to control so they build their bases in Bedfordshire and Swindon. The Dustbins encounter their first problem - the amount of disposable cars, apartments, and personal helicopters that are used and discarded like fire lighters in the 22nd century take up far more space than the Dustbins can handle even with the help of the Dustmen. So they decide to drill down to the core of the planet and replace the core with all the trash they simply can't handle. The idea then comes to them to use the earth as a moving space garbage can that they can store all the dust, dirt, and trash of the entire cosmos in and on, as the humans were already doing this but at a slower rate anyway. The Doctor and Ian are captured by Dustmen and taken to the Dustbin Supreme, the Black Dustbin, who tries to change the Doctor into a Dustman, strapping him with a flip lid in the Dusteriser Chamber of a Dustbin wheelie cart parked in Trafalgar Square. The rest of the TARDIS crew escape from the Dustbins and head for a rave party at "The Juvenile Delinquent" a wild Night Club, where Ian encounters Slyther, a 22nd century cyberpunk girl, The Dustbin's man-eating pet. Susan and a freedom-fighter Johnny Soup, Johnny Bastard to his friends, manage to gain entry to the club DJ's booth and destroy the Dustbin's radio network. No longer under the Dustbin's control, The Dustmen and the Rave Junkies are encouraged by the Doctor to rise against their inhuman masters and start kicking ass. Susan detonates a bomb which destroys the Dustbins and their wheelie carts. Earth is now safe and Susan, who wants to shack up with Johnny, is kicked out of the group by her grandfather who is annoyed because he still hasn't gotten any. With the departure of Susan, the Doctor's destructive granddaughter, the TARDIS crew changes for the first time.

Hartnell's first outdoor scene is sadly bad - "Ah, they're all listening to Meet the Dustbins? I should say that's near murder. Isn't it?" Fashion Victims - Susan not only wears the infamous white head band but a tacky t-shirt reading "Bad To The Bone" in a skull and bones design. Goofs - The Dustbin flying wheelie cart in episode one - your belief will have to be more suspended than the wheelie cart is on it's string. The Dustbin saucer commander changes sexual preference between episodes. And what is that Dustbin doing in a dive bar? In episode 2 the Dustbins are such bad sadists Barbara and Susan have to hold their neck manacles in place, and further more they seem to be enjoying themselves so maybe it's not a mistake after all. The Black Dustbin is often seen mixing martinis with special sucker stick attachments, and he often clears his throat before coming onto women with bad chat up lines. And who is "Wanking Sally" anyway? Why would the Dustbins go to Bedfordshire or Swidon, whatever the benefits? Why do the Dustbins set complex intelligence tests to determine suitability for being turned into Dustmen, who are mindless zombies - just for a laugh? Technobabble - After Ian notes that the Dustbins were simply dodge 'em cars gone insane who were all shut off and needed static electricity to move about and should be dead and not on earth at all, definitely not able to move about even if they were, the Doctor assures "My dear boy their destruction was probably in the future, and they have magic decoder rings now!" How the magic decorder rings, which were prizes in children's breakfast cereal, help the Dustbins move around was never established. The Doctor DOES explain that opening a fissure and dumping trash down it will "reverse the constellation flow and make things wacky". Dialogue Disasters - DOCTOR: Don't make me spank you like a monkey on a banister my dear child! DOCTOR: I think we better think of something to defeat them, tell someone else, and get the hell out of here. DUSTBINS: Refuse is Useless! (because) We Are The Masters Of Earth! JOHNNY: Are you one of those wackos who likes to dance naked in their underwear to 'Meet The Dustbins'? Dialogue Triumphs - HADDOCK: Cities were razed to the ground, then they were tidied up. Anyone who was slobby was destroyed. Some slobs were captured and turned into Dustmen, the slaves of the Dustbins. They caught other human beings and many of them were shipped into dull suburban areas, no-one escapes. The Dustmen see to that. DUSTBIN: Rebels of Slobbiness, this is your last offer - our final warning. Leave your hiding places, shower yourselves in the open streets, you will be fed and watered. Work is needed from you slackers. The Dustbins offer you life. Rebel against us and the Dustbins will destroy London completely. You will all die. The males, the females, the weird ones where it's hard to tell the difference. Your tax free tourists shops are very nice, we'd hate to blow them up, especially the ones that have "My Dustbin Comrades Dominated The Earth And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt" shirts. DOCTOR: One day, I'll get some. Yes, I shall get some. Until then they'll be lots of regrets, many tears, ego crushing anxieties. Just get the hell out of my face and do that kinky crap to your hearts content, see if I care. Goodbye, damn it. Goodbye, Slu---Susan. SUSAN: Yeah yeah, you don't see me cryin' do you old man?! Rumors & Facts - There is the popular rumor that this story is set in 2164. The Doctor and Ian find a calendar dated 2164, but it is in an abandoned antique warehouse and had obviously been there for quite some time. It is unlikely anyone was going about was going around placing and updating brand new calendars in old warehouses as it is hoped people will have more of a life in the 22nd century than to do that. People also sometimes believe that the Dustbins are defeated by exploiting their weaknesses to cheap lager. However this lager weakness was only used in the film adaptation of the story "Dustbins: Vacation On Earth 2150AD". Public perception seemed to be that The Dustbins were more effective in there second adventure, as stated by Orange Peel - "They seemed far more anal retentive on earth; annoying, petty - and TOTALLY boring. I remember them going to buy some souvenir phallus shaped soaps in Soho. It was very scary." Dustbinmania had begun to grip England in 1964; that disturbing fever that gripped the young and stupid with the desire to clean their homes screaming "Exterminate"! Often people seem to believe that the Dustbins went about in Hitler moustaches advertising ice cream in this story. This is due to Wall's Oppression Pops which swept the UK thanks to the highly successful advertising campaign "The Dustbins, They Are Colder Than Ice Cream, but it's twice as yummy with Wall's Oppression Pops". There is also the rumor that Johnny Soup is the great great grandson of the mysterious rebel Johnny who Susan was dating in London 1963. This theory is from the spin off novel "The Adventures of Susan #1: The Family Affair". This story is also known by the titles "The Wrong End" (from a street sign seen near the beginning of the episode, which also provided the episode title), "101 Travel Tips For Aggressive Tourists", and "Meet The Dustbins". Meet The Dustbins was a cheaply produced low quality record released to cash in on Dustbinmania. The producers of the show used this story to advertise their album whenever possible, often using musical tracks from it as backround music and at the night club. The fact that in the story it is revealed that the music is evil and controlling the minds of the Rave junkies and the Dustmen is happily ironic.
