Third of a four-part series tracing the evolution and applications of the phone. Saint and Sinner. Prostitutes and police forces, salesmen and Samaritans, hoaxers and helpline operators - they all depend on the phone. So have we made the telephone a blessing or a curse? This look at some of its modem uses ranges from nuisance calls and phone hoaxing to Mr Apology's New York telephone confessional, and the emergency services.
