   I just heard it - it was supposed to be a funny line said by a schoolboy. I   
   switched it on having missed the start and then the phone rang and I just   
   got snippets. But Orwell's name was mentioned a few times afterwards. It   
   doesn't look as if they've got listen again for it. Here's the link:

   By the way, do you think we've been boycotted because I mentioned Wyndham   
   Lewis?
