Episode synopsis
Billy tries to tell his sceptical family about Alfonso, at least until Alfonso unexpectedly turns up and proceeds to ingratiate himself into the family, while turning his attention to Billy's older sister Linda. When Alfonso uses his powers to meddle with the TV, he offers to bring over his own set as a replacement. But his Milanese TV set has some very peculiar side effects, which Billy is soon to discover.
About Alfonso Bonzo
Young Billy Webb likes to swap things with his schoolmates. He meets Alfonso Bonzo, an 'Italian exchange student' who also has a talent for swapping things (thus his self-description: he is an Italian student who exchanges things). Billy makes a series of magical but increasingly risky swaps with Alfonso, leading to unexpected and sometimes sinister consequences as Alfonso's true nature becomes questionable.
