Douglas: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, First Officer Douglas Richardson here. Just to let you know, we are making our final approach now into what I am fairly sure is Fitton Airfield. Unless it’s a farm. Or just possibly the A45. It’s not the sea, because that’s blue. I should perhaps explain that Captain Crieff and I have a sportsman-like little bet on today about who can fly the best after drinking a liter of vodka through a straw. The Captain went first. You may have noticed the takeoff run was a little bumpy, particularly over the golf course. Now it’s me to land… just as soon as I decide which of these two runways to aim for. And I’m happy to tell you that I feel lucky! So on behalf of all your crew today, may I just say… GERONIMO!!

Martin: Blessed.

Douglas: Ah yes, of course. May.

Martin: Mm-hmm, yep. Cant.

Arthur: Here we are, gents: coffee with nothing in it, tea with everything in it. Great cabin address, Douglas. I love cargo flights.

Douglas: Thank you, Arthur.

Martin: Ooh! Eno.

Douglas: Ooweeno?

Martin: Ooh, Eno.

Douglas: Ah yes! Sewell.

Arthur: Ooh, what are we playing?

Martin: Brians of Britain.

Arthur: There must be loads of them! Umm… uhhh…

Douglas: Well, not to worry, as they come to you…

Arthur: Oh! Who was that guy… um, oh, gray hair, did that game show, “Can I have a ‘P’ please, Bob?” Um, what was his name?

Douglas: Your hope being that it was Brian?

Arthur: Yeah! Brian… uh, Brian…

Martin: Bob Holness, it was Bob Holness.

Arthur: That’s it! Oh. Well, does he count anyway?

Douglas: Does Bob Holness count in our list of people called Brian? What the hell, yes he does. Well done.

Tower: Golf tango india, expect twenty minute delay due runway inspection. Enter the hold at Arden, maintain seven thousand feet.

Martin: Golf tango india, roger, hold at Arden, maintain seven thousand feet. Can you confirm delay only twenty minutes?

Tower: *sigh* Probably. It all depends, really.

Martin: Thank you, tower. Hugely informative, as ever. Out. Sorry chaps, looks like we’d better divert to Bristol.

Arthur: Bristol? Why?

Martin: Fitton’s got a runway closure, we’d have to hold for twenty minutes.

Arthur: But Bristol, that’s miles away.

Martin: Yes, luckily enough, though, we’re in an aeroplane, specially designed to be good at going miles away quite quickly.

Arthur: Yeah, but my car’s at Fitton.

Martin: Oh, well, then, let us by all means circle ‘round it until we drop out of the sky.

Douglas: Do you know, Martin, all these years and I’ve never been to Bristol.

Martin: Well get ready for a treat.

Douglas: I don’t know, I was rather hoping not to break my duck.

Arthur: Skipper, are you sure there’s not enough fuel to wait? Cause, there’s always a little bit left when the gauge shows red.

Martin: Yes, oddly enough Arthur, a jet aircraft isn’t as
