Default Re: New 'Telephone' TV Programme On BBC 4

I never knew there was an episode of Trumpton with telephone engineers on!
He got that a bit wrong, Mr Wantage was the telephone engineer, who had left the open manhole in the charge of his apprentice, 'Fred', and it was one of Miss Lovelaces dogs -Mitzy, Daphne and Lulu - I cant remember which, went in and mucked up the wires, that the apprentice couldn't sort. Mr Wantages song is the ring tone on my work mobile... and I still work for BT.
