TLP was not what you'd call a popular character. He lied, cheated and slept with other characters' wives, and that was on his good days. But his luck ran out when he tried to sell William the Bloody a secondhand used Ford Astra. When William was involved in a pile-up on Freeway 109, and barely survived the crash, he went back to the car lot looking for TLP. But he had just left, having been warned of the imminent arrival of the irate cop by his brother. A fierce car chase ensued, during which some cinematography was utilised which has since been described as “like that pod race in The Phantom Menace” and used up most of the budget for that episode, leading to the only other scene being Janszoon looking out his door and saying his only line in the episode, Over the Hills and Far Away, Part III, “Nah, looks like it's raining. Let's stay in.”

The episode met with severe criticism, both for the gory and bloody death of TLP at the hands of William, the recklessness with which they both powered through a whole line of schoolchildren and also the complete absence of any other subplot, or indeed any of the other characters. Trollheart has since said it was his “least favourite episode of season nine, unless you count Beer Ahoy!, which I think everyone who's seen the show agrees is not only the worst of that season, but of the entire show so far.”
