Mind Your Language1977
Miss Courtney:
I distinctedly requested for the local authority to send a woman teacher, especially in view of what happened to Mr. Warburton.
Jeremy Brown:
Mr. Warburton?
Miss Courtney:
Yes, he was teaching English language for Foreign students last term. I'm afraid he only lasted a month. Then, he departed.
Jeremy Brown:
Dead?
Miss Courtney:
Demented! Yes, the strain was too much for him. Typical of the male sex, no stamina! Always seem to be able to cope at first and then he just snapped! It was really quite disgusting!
Jeremy Brown:
Really? What did he do?
Miss Courtney:
Climbed out of the classroom window, on to the roof, took off all his clothes and stood there stark naked singing "I've Got A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts!"
Jeremy Brown:
How distressing. Well, there's no need to worry on my account. I mean, I'm not about to climb out of the classroom window!
Miss Courtney:
I know you aren't.
Jeremy Brown:
Oh? Thank you for your confidence!
Miss Courtney:
It has nothing to do with confidence. We've had the window frames nailed down!
