Listen, lad. I’ve built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was swamp. The king said I was daft to build a castle in a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show ‘em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up! An’ that’s what your gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands. ---

What a good punchline. Pity we missed that. Still, never mind, we can always do it again. Make a series out of it. Now if you’ll just sign there, I’ll put this through to our contracts department and you should be hearing from them in a year or two. ---

Well, I would destroy the lower classes, first with bombs and rockets destroying their homes and then when they run screaming into the streets, mowing them down with submachine guns. I know these views aren’t popular, but I have never courted popularity. ---
