Shocking news has come to light that a recent spate of drilling for oil in one family's back garden has been perpetrated by miners, bent on revenge.

The Mail can reveal that miners, bent on revenge are actually not human at all but have been spawned in Europe by a bureaucrat known as Saruman who intends to wrest control of all that is good and decent using this army of misfits.

Jim Davidson said of the miners, bent on revenge, "arbeit macht frei".
