Antony Carrick: Counsel

Quotes 

• [Joe and Kenneth are in court, being charged with defacing library books] 

  Counsil : This is the novel "Clouds of Witness" by the noted authoress Dorothy L. Sayers. Could you read what the accused have written on the flap of the jacket?

  Policeman : [reading]  When little Betty McDree says she has been interfered with, her mother first laughs. It is only something the kiddie has picked up off the television. But when, sorting through the laundry, Mrs. McDree discovers a new pair of knickers are missing, she thinks again. Her mother takes little Betty to the police station where, to everyone's surprise, she identifies PC Brenda Coolidge as her attacker. A search is made of the women's police barracks. What is found there is a seven inch phallus and a pair of knickers of the type used by Betty. All looks black for kindly PC Coolidge. This is one of the most enthralling stories ever written by Miss Sayers. Read it behind closed doors... and have a good shit while you're reading it.
