Mr and Mrs Porritt were watching an antiques show on TV when their bell rang. At the door was a pretty policewoman, looking slightly nervous. She smiled pleasantly.
“Sorry to bother you. Nothing to worry about. There’s a report of a violent escaped convict being seen in this area. Probably a false alarm, but could I possibly check your back garden?”
Naturally they let her in and she went out the back. Two minutes later they heard the sounds of a desperate struggle. They went out to help. They and the convict enjoyed her for days.
Two alert young policewomen stopped a lorry a few miles from a port and found twenty illegal immigrants.
The immigrants’ first day in the country was happy but exhausting, and the traffickers had a return cargo.
