*Ben Van Der Velde: Sidekick *Some people are life's heroes: leading men and women full of swash, buckle and derring-do. Oth-ers just hold their jackets. 
Ben Van der Velde has been peeping out through his drawn curtains and isn't feeling too sure about the future for him, his wife or his vaguely imminent kids. The world seems like a tinderbox ready to explode and he's not prepared for the fallout. He's on the hunt for a hero to see him through World War 3 (and possibly 4 or 5), whilst trying to find any upsides in the life of a perennial sidekick.
Join Ben as he salutes the Barney Rubbles, Boo-Boos and Dr Watsons of the world.
