A very funny episode, with plenty of double entendres' that probably went over the heads of kids at the time so they got away with it.
Lord Collingford and Groome are competing in a marrow growing competition, meanwhile Catweazle has the sniffles and needs Cedric to stir a potion he has prepared with an electrickery stirrer, as it needs to be stirred 9000 times. Cedric uses Mrs Gowdie's cake mixer, and Groome has the same idea to stir his marrow fertilizer. The two buckets get mixed up and hey presto, Cat's potion ends up on the marrows. They grow to enormous size, hence the lines;
" my marrow is six foot long"
" aren't you interested in my marrow"
" men always exaggerate my lady"
When the potion goes into reverse,
" my marrow shrunk Dotty darling"
A riot of an episode, love it.
