And 3 years later, he died of 281 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,200 gangrene. 282 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,200 The spot soon set out to seek its fortune... 283 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,000 284 00:23:15,700 --> 00:23:18,000 Did you see who's just moved in next door? 285 00:23:18,300 --> 00:23:20,600 Yes, black as the ace of spades. 286 00:23:21,700 --> 00:23:24,600 Oh, there goes the neighbourhood!

We don't know 292 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,800 where it'll be from... it might be Leicester or from Luton. The polling's been quite heavy in both areas... 293 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:59,400 oh, wait a moment, I'm just getting... I'm just getting a loud buzzing noise in my left ear. Excuse me a moment. 294 00:24:05,900 --> 00:24:07,900 Anyway, let's go straight over to James Gilbert at Leicester. 295 00:24:08,300 --> 00:24:10,600 Well it's a straight fight here at Leicester... 296 00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:15,800 On the left of the Returning Officer you can see Arthur Smith, the Sensible candidate and his agent, 297 00:24:16,300 --> 00:24:21,000 and on the other side is the silly candidate Jethro Walrustitty with his agent and his wife. 298 00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:25,800 Here is the result for Leicester. 299 00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:30,400 Arthur J.

What do you make of that, Norman? 304 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,800 Well, this is largely as I predicted, except that the Silly Party won. 305 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,800 I think this is mainly due to the number of votes cast. Gerald? 306 00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:03,900 Well there's a swing here to the Silly Party... but how big a swing I'm not going to tell you. 307 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,600 Well, if I may... I think the interesting thing here is the big swing to the Silly Party 308 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:12,200 and of course the very large swing back to the Sensible Party... and a tendency to wobble up and down in the middle because the screw's loose. 309 00:25:13,300 --> 00:25:16,500 - No, I'm afraid I can't think of anything. - I can't add anything to that. Colin? 310 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,000 Can I butt in at this point and say this is in fact the very first time I've appeared on television. 311 00:25:20,500 --> 00:25:22,500 No, no we haven't time, because we're just going straight over to Luton. 312 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,100 Here at Luton it's a 3-cornered fight 313 00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:28,500 between Alan Jones (Sensible Party), in the middle, 314 00:25:28,500 --> 00:25:34,600 Tarquin Fin- tim- lim- bim- whin- bim- lim- bus- stop- F'tang- F'tang- Olè- Biscuitbarrel (Silly Party), 315 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,300 and Kevin Phillips-Bong, the Slightly Silly candidate. 316 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,000 Alan Jones (On the left, Sensible Party) 317 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,600 9 112. 318 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,600 Kevin Phillips-Bong (On the right, Slightly Silly) 319 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,000 Nought... 320 00:25:52,500 --> 00:25:59,200 Tarquin Fin- tim- lin- bin- whin- bim- lin- bus- stop- F'tang- F'tang- Olé- Biscuitbarrel... 321 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,000 (Silly) 322 00:26:00,500 --> 00:26:03,600 12 441. 323 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,000 And so the Silly Party has taken Luton. 324 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,500 A gain for the Silly Party at Luton. The first gain of the election, Norman? 325 00:26:10,500 --> 00:26:14,200 Well this is a highly significant result. Luton, normally a very sensible constituency 326 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,400 with a high proportion of people who aren't a bit silly, has gone completely ga-ga. 327 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,000 Do we have the swing at Luton? 328 00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:21,100 Well, I've worked out the swing, but it's a secret. 329 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,000 Er, well, ah, there... there isn't the swing, how about a swong? 330 00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:31,600 Well, I've got the swong here in this box and it's looking fine. 331 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,000 I can see through the breathing holes that it's eating up peanuts at the rate of knots. 332 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,100 And how about the swang? 333 00:26:36,700 --> 00:26:41,500 Well, it's 29% up over 600 feet but it's a little bit soft around the edges about... 334 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,400 What do you make of the nylon dot cardigan and plastic mule rest? 335 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,000 - There's no such thing. - Thank you, Spike. 336 00:26:46,300 --> 00:26:49,500 Can I just come in here and say that the swong has choked itself to death. 337 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,000 - Well, the election's really beginning to hot up now. - I can't add anything to that. 338 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,800 Can I just add at this point that this is in fact the second time I've ever been on television? 339 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,600 I'm sorry, Sasha, we're just about to get another result. 340 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,000 Hello, from Harpenden.
