Martin, thanks for setting me straight on that one. I'd got mixed up
with another story-line. I think the bottom-of-the-red-box scenario
cropped up in an early episode of "Yes, Minister".

You're probably thinking of "Big Brother", which is the fourth episode of
the first series. Hacker is told by Tom Sargent (his predecessor at the
DAA) that Humphrey's reasons for not going ahead with the national
database will be found in the bottom of his final red box that night.


Thanks, David. I see we don't just have weather anoraks here. ;-)
