When Plastic Cutlasses are Outlawed...

A Cornish village drama group has had to register a toy gun with the police to comply with health and safety rules.


Carnon Downs drama group in Cornwall have also had to keep their plastic cutlasses and wooden swords locked up for the pantomime, Robinson Crusoe...

The climax of the show is a fight in which actors use replica 4ft-foot long plastic cutlasses.

There is also a toy gun which produces a flag saying "Bang".

It's official. The UK has become a Monty Python skit.

I'm sure Monty Python would be jailed for the assortment of weapons and armor used in the filming of the "Holy Grail".

Anyway, it's only a couple of plastic swords, I'm sure they weren't expecting... Oh, never mind.
