Karma Houdini: Radio
  • Hercules Grytpype-Thynne in The Goon Show would generally never sustain any comeuppance for using Neddie as a fall guy in his schemes. For example, after faking a disease outbreak in Lurgi Strikes Britain, he and Moriarty disappear while Neddie becomes a wanted criminal (and goes mad... OK, madder). Granted, sometimes he does have something bad happen, such as Tales of Old Dartmoor (in which he ends up inside Dartmoor Prison as it sinks into the ocean...yeah, it's a weird show), but they are vastly outnumbered by the ones where he gets off scot-free.
