Barcroft, Todd and Spaghetti by BRIAN CLEAR with Nigel Stock , Henry Woolf and David Jackson
'We, the inmates, or patients as we prefer to be called, think of this institution as Headsville. An anonymous American city inside our heads. I'm not allowed any medals here, for medals have pins, pointed ends that can pick holes in wrists.... Captain John Westover Barcroft I had a distinguished Army record you know. Is had right, should it be the present tense, have? Do I still have my distinguished Army record or have they taken it away from me since I came to Headsville? ... Cancelled due to madness! .
