Policeman 'put song lyrics' in lawyer inquest evidence
Hi all,
this story recently broke onto the news scene.
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-11672840

It concerns the barrister shot by police for brandishing a shotgun- I'm sure you remember the event. Alledgedly, one of the firearm officers inserted song titles into his evidence, reminiscent of the World cup squad in 1998 when they were being interviewed.

My questions is : "What song titles could the firearms officer have quoted?"

I'll start the ball rolling....Shot in the dark

I thought the exact same thing when I read the bomb story- two seconds of wikipedia later...

A comedy movie loosely based around the events, 30 Minutes or Less (2011) starring Danny McBride and Jesse Eisenberg is also filming.[24]

Barristers do something similar all the time
They play a game, daring each other to insert bizarre words in their closing statements.

It's not my fault Bon Jovi did the soundtrack to Young Guns 2
that whole film is basically a pop video. All the songs are about guns and blazing and wotnot.

If he did this he went a long way to being the first policeman who isn't an utter, utter cunt who needs hanging.
He's still a cunt though, no foolin'.

He might state that his reaction on receiving the initial call was I don't want to go to Chelsea
Or when asked to comment on the barrister's level of intoxication, he could say that his observations led him to believe that the guy was "too drunk to fuck".
