and comedy producer Armando Iannucci comes Lab Rats a big joyful nonsense of a sitcom starring Chris Addison (The Thick of It In The Loop). Dr. Alex Beenyman (Addison) is the last sane man in the Arnolfini Research Laboratory and he'd be really really good at his job if it wasn't for the dypsomaniac professor (Geoffrey McGivern). And the giant snails. And his space cadet best friend (Josephine Enright). And the egg-hurling protestors. Oh and the borderline psychopathic lab technician (Dan Tetsell). And the indoor blizzards. And his unfathomable dutch boss (Selina Cadell) come to that. And the man in the pink mohair jumper and purple leggings in suspended animation in the back room. And the mardy secretary (Helen Moon). And of course the fact that he's really really not very good at his job.

$2,000,000 sits inside a canvas holdall in locker number 001 in silver city railway station. You have the key to the locker. The only problem is, so do 6 other people.
This is the premise of the film, Rat Race. Set up by eccentric millionaire, John Cleese, six people selected at random from the casino are given the opportunity to race for a prize of $2,000,000 using both fair means and foul to ensure that they are the winners.

About Rats.
Rat can grow to be about 10cm (4in) long and the tail will be nearly the same length again. They have four toes on teach of their front feet and five on the back feet. They use their front paws to hold food. Their teeth grow all time so it is good if they can have something hard to chew on. Rats have short manageable fur which they tend to keep clean themselves.

Rats are best to be brought from Pet Shops or Breeders, however, they can also be brought from rescue centres.

Breeders: Know about the rats history ...
