60 Second Interview With Number 14


No.113 "I contribute to The Tally Ho you know."
"No, I didn't know."
"And this is my photographic colleague Number one hundred and thirteen b."
No.113b "Smile." {click goes the camera}
"Look, I don't know what you want here, but Number Two can't see you at the moment."
No.113 "It's not Number Two we've come to see."
"Then who?"
"You!"
"I've got nothing to say."
"Pity. I was going to ask you how long you intended to be here."
"What are you talking about?"
"You're an ambitious man Number fourteen. You want to get on, promotion, perhaps rising to the lofty position of Number Two."
"So?"
"What if I told you that there's a guy in the next episode who dresses in the same clothes as you......."
"You must be out of your mind!"
".......Someone who looks like you........."
"What are you talking about?"
".......so much so, that it could be you. But obviously it isn't you, and the numbers are not the same.
"If you don't get out of here, I'll jolly well give you both a good dusting down!"
No.113b "Smile" {click goes the camera}
No.113 "We don't play Kosho!"
No.113b "No, it's Number Six you want for that!"
{No.14 walked slowly, menacingly towards us, and Number one one three and I beat a hasty retreat. For he who writes and runs away, gets to write another day.}
