                      Yep, that one. The one about Mr Brown catching the 8.21.

                      (Somebody here thought he was on the 'A21'. Imagine that.)

                            Somebody else understood "And he ain't 21". Worse than Scrumpy 'n' Western-gate, that.

                              Far worse.

                              I mean, given that it actually existed in the public consciousness.

                                As if the BBC would have allowed the word "ain't" before the nine o'clock watershed.

                                      There's a lot going on in The Day Before You Came, but the train commute (in either direction) is mentioned. Just the commute, no details, though.

                                          Coronation Scot was presumably an express service, rather than a commuter train?
