The Goob - Guy Myhill. We're in the
middle of a heat-wave in Fenland, England. Goob Taylor has spent each of his
sixteen summers helping Mum run the transport cafe and harvest the surrounding
pumpkin fields. When Mum shacks up with swarthy stock-car driving supremo and
ladies' man Gene Womack, Goob becomes an unwelcome side thought. However Goob's
world turns when exotic pumpkin picker Eva arrives. Fuelled by her flirtatious
comments, Goob dreams of better things. For the last ten years Guy
Myhill has worked extensively in film, television, theatre and media
education. The Goob is his
feature debut.
