Anybody get a look at the driver?
I can't watch this without the UK Covid-19 Inquiry crossing my mind. I'm not sure why - perhaps it's something to do with the driver escaping unscathed.
When I was a UK Police officer, I was often asked which tv Police programme was closest to real life? The majority of people seemed disappointed when I suggested Rowan Atkinson's "The Thin Blue Line" was the closest. I think Leslie Neilsen would have fitted in well, with my County force, as long as he left his gun behind. His shooting was much better than our firearms team of the time.

Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteScrobs - Leslie Nielsen was so good at faintly mystified deadpan. Much better than Joe Biden.

ReplyDeletePenseivat - at the time I quite liked "The Thin Blue Line". There was something very public sector about it.
