Try them on. I think you&#8217;re all with me here, but just for anyone who&#8217;s joined us late, I don&#8217;t mean she&#8217;d go to the changing rooms and try them on. That would be a preposterous idea wouldn&#8217;t it? No, she&#8217;d just get undressed there in the middle of the sales floor to try them on. It took me some considerable time to persuade her that this wasn&#8217;t normal behaviour in Britain, despite what she might have seen on Benny Hill.
