Series 3, Episode 6 - Holofile 703: Us and Phlegm

Nebulous discovers that 99% of Britain's workforce has called in sick with 'Serious Illness Syndrome', including K.E.N.T.'s staff.

Further details

He is only able to avoid illness himself due to a clown injection which protects him from every known illness except one: 'Tuesday Today Disease'.

Nebulous encounters the cause - a clown doctor, now bent on making everyone ill. The doctor has the help of a lifeform known as a 'Phlegmbion'.
