==Premise== 
Three stone gnomes come to life when darkness falls, living their own life. They would look at human behavior from their own perspective, discussing what is happening at home, while showing the same snobbish approach to their plastic neighbors.

==Availability==
The show was well received but it was not successful enough to warrant another season.<ref>Carpenter, Paul (2016). "Jimmy Perry OBE". Permission to Speak, Sir!.</ref> Little is known about this program because all of its 6 episodes have been lost. It is also difficult to just find pictures.

The original tapes were wiped in the 1970s and only audio fragments of the first episode and scripts for all six episodes have been preserved in the present day.
