Crowds gather (quietly) to watch repeat episodes of TheVal Doonican Show. Chef is the universal designated sitcom The Diaries of Ann Diamond are studied in all schools. In the all-pervading calm, the crackle of a Frenchman's grime-stiffened underpants sounds like a rifle shot. Crepe-soled shoes are de rigeur, anyone wearing Segs is beaten in the street by the Quiet Police using the new long-handled - but foam covered - batons Blakey possession carries a life sentence and the immediate neutering of the culprit's family. Corduroy trousers (of any colour), with their intrinsic capacity for aural disturbance, have been banned. Even leaves seem intrusively loud as they flutter to the ground. The universe is now dull, dull, dull.Įverywhere, peace reigns. Even heated arguments are something no self-respecting life-form would indulge in (whispered insults, as long as they're not punctuated by any form of gesture, are just about acceptable as long as you cover your mouth with your hand). War is a thing of the past, fights are distinctly passe.

It's 2204, And What's It To Ya? You still haven't won the lottery.
