The Frost Fair on the Frozen Thames

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIn sixteen eighty-four, the Thames froze so hard that Londoners threw a fair on it. Skip and Lola have restaged it. Badly.

2. 

   Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentBehold, the frozen Thames! Two months of ice, eleven inches thick, and I'm the king.

3. 

   Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentThat's a blue bedsheet, Skip. The river is a bedsheet.

4. 

   Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentSir, my boat is stuck in the ice! I stare at it, bravely.

5. 

   Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentYour boat is a cardboard sign that says boat.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorStalls and shops popped up across the ice, a whole street of them.

7. 

   Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentI covered a port backlog in worse conditions. Coach racing begins. Hold your hats.

8. 

   Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentWhee! I'm the coach! I'm also the horse! I can do both!

10. 

    Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentI am Croom, the printer. Your name, printed right here on the Thames, sixpence.

11. 

    Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentSixpence! For a card! I'll take it, as the king, who waits in line like everyone.

12. 

    Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentCroom made five pounds a day. I want a cut of this production.

13. 

    Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentYour Majesty-ness accepts the card!

14. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat really happened. Per Wikipedia, King Charles the Second bought a card from the printer, Croom, for sixpence.

15. 

    Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentHank, could you print me a card that says desk anchor?

16.
