“‘We find the vanishing vicar of Lovers’ Leap!’ ‘Sally Smith is a tea lady in a Blackpool engineering works, but it was the way she filled those C-cups which got our cameraman all stirred up!’ It’s crap. And it’s written by grown men earning maybe ten thousand a year. If I was a printer, I’d look at some of the stuff I’m given to print, and I’d ask myself what is supposed to be so special about the people who write it.”
