Re: Humour in the TV trade.
This is one of many.
All persons are real, but their identities have been protected. I do not know of anyone called Mr A or Mrs B, although there is someone about called "U".
Phone rings - Mr A (shop manager) answers it and talks to Mrs B (rental customer).
B: "My telly has just packed up - can someone come out?"
A: "Certainly - where do you live?"
B: "nn xxxxxx Street, Swinton"
A: "OK, we'll come and sort it today, but as this is Moston, we will pass the call to our Swinton branch."
B: "OK, thanks. Didn't know there was a branch there as we have just moved"
A: "I'll give you the number for future reference"
B: "Have you got a pencil?"
