[[Tegan Jovanka]] was once forced by Sir [[George Hutchinson]] to be the Queen of the May in a war games simulation that happened in [[Little Hodcombe]] in [[1984]].  She escaped being burnt at the maypole because she was replaced at the last minute by a straw figure.  ([[DW]]: ''[[The Awakening]]'')
