In the merry town of London lives a pig named Frances Bacon, who resides with her owners in a quaint little pub called The Conquering Hero. Frances shares her residence with the owners of the establishment, Ian and Vicky Taylor-Ross, and has her own private area in the pub's garden, though she prefers to mingle with the customers indoors because she's a sweet and friendly little pig.
She's so friendly, in fact, that customers routinely let her finish off their rounds of beer, which has become a problem for obvious reasons, but also because Frances turns into somewhat of a menace once she's had a bit too much.
Under the influence of liquor, Frances has a tendency to headbutt everyone in the room, and, just like an inebriated human, recently broke into the pub's kitchen and started feasting on the cupboard drawer.
As a result, the owners have had to bar her from entering the pub, and start asking all customers to refrain from feeding her addiction, which is a good thing, because pigs are actually supposed to live on a strict diet and—in case anyone wasn't aware!—drunk pigs are a very bad idea all around.
