Mr. Hutchinson
There is a documentary on BBC2 this evening about Squawking Bird, the leader of the Blackfoot Indians in the late 1860s. Now this starts at 8.45 and goes on for approximately three-quarters of an hour.
Basil
I'm sorry, are you talking to me?
Mr. Hutchinson
Indeed I am, yes. Now is it possible for me to reserve the BBC2 channel for the duration of this televisual feast?
Basil
Why don't you talk properly?
Mr. Hutchinson
I beg your pardon?
Basil
No it isn't.
Mr. Hutchinson
What?
Basil
It is not possible to reserve the BBC2 channel from the commencement of this televisual feast until the moment of the termination of its ending, thank you so much.
