The Unreliable Wand Runtime: 13 minutes 16 mm colour film King Rufus is put in charge of organising the entertainment for King Boris of Borsovia's impending visit. And so Court Magician Mr. Weatherspoon puts on a magic show. Unfortunately Mr. Weatherspoon finds that his second-hand wand is worn out. Even more unfortunately, ye olde wand revival procedure (which makes a worn out wand good for two more spells) makes the wand unreliable, which creates some worrying situations. Narrated
by Gordon Murray & Roy Skelton
