A partially animated film that deliberate distorts the films images that feature three male characters, all wearing fake noses, moustache and glasses, dancing around various locations including a beach and the village setting created for 'The Lambton Worm'. A dark circle is thrown on the ground at one point and the three characters are animated jumping into it. Title: TTFN (Ta Ta For Now) With a rock soundtrack, three men appear on screen in front of a beach and shoreline which appears to be tilted at forty-five degrees. The beach appears with some colour; the figures are in black and white. The men wear false glasses with false noses and moustaches. Dressed in Victorian style top hats and frock coats they look directly into the camera. Most of the film remains in black and white from this point as the trio run across a rock-strewn beach towards the camera. The figures move to an area of long grass amongst sand dunes. They hide themselves in the grass appearing spasmodically. On a pavement in front of houses one of the figures places a black disc. Each character stands on it and immediately disappears. General views show the trio in the long grass, and dancing amid concrete structures where they adopt the position of leaning forwards as if going uphill. They then move in a juddering fashion along a street footpath. Montage effects show the three static figures in the distance as they move in the foreground. A black disc appears on the side of a sand dune and they each disappear into it. The trio inspect a well then, the film cuts to the group again in long grass in the distance. The trio appear next to the well again, then they stare into the camera. They then run up the concrete supports of a bridge or road. Ona sandy coloured dune near a beach they stand facing the camera, bowing. They sit on a bench facing the camera, speeded up voices give the impression of speaking to each other, the picture fades and the film ends. Title: The End No credits
