Details |
"Well, that ought to blue-pencil well teach yer not to come monkeyin' around 'ere with yer blue-pencil Dornier, flyin' blue pencil, or whatever it is."
As the Battle of Britain rages over the skies of England, Old Bill takes prisoner a crash-landed Luftwaffe pilot. Unfortunately, most of what he'd like to say to the German airman would have to be pencilled out by the editor!
