Candid Camera 【小题2】 (create) and produced by Allen Funt. It started out on radio in 1947, but ended up on TV in 1948. The idea for the show was simple.

The city of Armada opened its arms to a new business on Huntington Drive at First Street. The store, called Turtle Dove, is a pet shop specialising in two kinds of animals. The owners are two brothers, Bill and Bob Pidgin. They moved here from Northern California, where they owned an ant farm store called Animal House. That store was such a success that after five years they sold it for a big profit.
They took it easy for a couple of years, travelling throughout the states. “We visited almost every zoo in the country, partly because we love animals and partly because we were looking for inspiration for our next business.” said Bill. They finally decided on turtles and doves. “They're easy to feed and care for, and both animals live a long time,” said Bob.
The store will be open from 9:00 am to 9:00 pmWednesdays through Saturdays. “We think those are hours that our customers will find very convenient. Plus, the three days' off gives us a chance to go into the woods and find more critters. We never buy our own animals, but we always try to collect them from the wild. That way we can pass on huge savings to our customers. And, of course, by removing these animals from their natural habitats, we protect them from being eaten by their natural enemies. So our customers are happy, our animals are happy, and we’re happy. It's a win-win situation for all of us.” said Bill and Bob.
