A zany zigzag of puzzles and quizzes featuring The Scaffold
with special guest Moira Lister
and Wendy Padbury, The Fourmost
Inspector Boniface Investigates
and the answer to:
Every evening a person gets into the one lift in a block of flats, travels to the 10th floor, and then climbs the stairs to his home on the 15th floor. The next morning he gets into the lift on the 15th floor and gets out on the ground floor. The person is not a keep-fit fiend, nor anxious to avoid anyone in the building. What is the reason for his unusual behaviour?
