Logo for The Cramp Twins - Series 3 - Cow Son

Animation about ten-year-old twins Wayne and Lucien Cramp - brothers who are complete opposites of one another. Mr Cramp is spending a lot of time and attention on Wayne, trying to convince him to make animal noises for a competition. Wayne refuses, hoping to bribe his dad into letting him drive the car. Lucien feels left out and becomes jealous of Tony and Mr Parsons. Lucien wishes his dad was more like Tony's and starts spending more time with Mr Parsons. However, Tony then gets jealous and Mr Parsons tells Lucien that he should to get closer to his own dad. Lucien tries, but his attempts all go disastrously wrong. When he learns that his dad has been trying to get Wayne to enter an animal calling competition at the Haz Chem Country and Western Club, Lucien shows off his own animal calling skills, which it turns out are impressive. He immediately becomes Mr Cramp's favourite twin. Lucien enters the competition, but then learns that the prize is a live cow. He pulls out on principle, as he is a vegetarian and the winner would have to kill and eat the cow. Mr Cramp points out that by winning the cow Lucien could save its life, as he could keep it as a pet rather than eat it. Lucien tries his hardest but only wins in the end with a little unexpected help from Wayne on the car horn.
