Episode on a Thursday Evening by DON HAWORTH
The dilemma of two owners of a seedy local cinema faced with a bomb scare and the adverse publicity it will bring to the sale of their property. To evacuate or not ... ?
TOM: If they could get buildings evacuated on the strength of a phone call they could paralyse the civilised world from a telephone box.
ROSE: You've got to keep a sense of proportion. There's scores of spoof calls every day. It's a fashionable yobbo's hobby. The big hotels and banks and whatnot don't react any more and we wouldn't here, if it happened again.
