Hmm, lets think about this logically - Sri Lanka... its capital is Colombo... sounds like Columbo... Columbo wears a trenchcoat... trenchcoats worn by streakers and exhibitionists... oh Jesus! The newsreaders are going to shed their clothes to read the news and interview guests using the line "Just one more thing"! I don't think my stomach can handle a naked Peter Sissons smoking a cigar.


Your style of deduction to start with, made me think you were about to reveal Dusty Bin.

Best if we all meet at Rama's Bridge to discuss this

Ah, you mean the Rama's Bridge that is also called Nala's Bridge and Adam's Bridge? The chain of limestone shoals, between the islands of Mannar, near northwestern Sri Lanka, and Rameswaram, off the southeastern coast of India?

All this bridge talk, does this mean the studio will look like the bridge of the Enterprise?

Also, it has come to my notice - through a series of coded hand signals - that not everyone on this Forum are what they seem. Col Mustard, for instance, is not a Colonel. In fact he has never held a rank above that of Bronze Arrow. So, in future, I will take what is posted on here with a shovel of salt.
