The Lost Honour of Christopher Jefferies2014
[having been woken in the middle of the night, Christopher Jefferies has been arrested and taken to a police station; he is bewildered at being photographed, fingerprinted and examined by a police doctor]
Police Doctor:
Small abrasion on the right forearm.
Christopher Jefferies:
What are you doing?
Police Doctor:
Looking for signs of a struggle.
Christopher Jefferies:
I struggled with my own car door whilst unpacking the shopping.
Police Doctor:
Several pinpricks on the finger-tips.
Christopher Jefferies:
Those are chilbains.
Police Doctor:
Have you ever suffered from depression? Ever had any suicidal thoughts?
Christopher Jefferies:
Not hitherto, although I dare say the chances are rising by the minute.
