I keep a spare front door key on my cat's collar.
If I ever
, I simply call my cat
and he comes to my rescue.
- Lee's team. - Wow. - What's the name of your cat, Sheila?
- Stanley.
- Could you
? How do you call Stanley?
- Meow!
- Surely... Surely that's how he calls you?!
- No, that's what Stanley says.
I was confusing, because when he wanted to come in,
I didn't have a
and I would do the intercom and say, "Are you there, Stanley?"
And he'd go, "Meow!"
- So you haven't got a cat flap.
- I haven't got a cat flap, no.
- You haven't got a cat flap and the spare key is round his neck.
- Yeah. - What happens if you come and he's in the house?
- He doesn't
when he's in the house.
- Oh, he
, does he, when he comes in?
- I take them off. - Does he take it off and hide it under the brick for you
when you go in?
- I take them off when it's in the house, cos it
.
- So do you put him out every time you leave the house?
- Yes, I do. - You do. - I do.
- Are you not worried about
seeing the key
around your cat's neck and then using him like a
and just...?
- No, no. No, cos he's...
- "This key's not working!"
- No, it's in a metal case, it looks almost like a whistle or something.
- Oh, I see. - And you just
and then inside there's a key.
- Does he also wear one of those medallions with his address on it?
- No, he's got a chip, he's got a chip inside him.
- He's got a chip. Oh, yes, yes.
- He doesn't need anyone to bring him home with his address
cos he can just come and go as he pleases with the key.
- When was the last time you had to use this method?
- About a
ago. - What happened?
- I'd forgot my key. I left it inside. - What time?
- It was late at night and
from the theatre.
It was about 11 o'clock.
- Oh, what were you seeing? Don't say Cats.
- I'd seen Jez Butterworth's new play.
- Can I just ask why you don't
mortise lock your door?
- Modest? - Mortise.
- Let me interpret for my friend. - In my defence, I'm from Scotland.
- My friend is saying...
- HE MUMBLES QUICKLY IN A THICK SCOTTISH ACCENT
- I don't know what a mortise lock is.
- Well, you know the big lock? Aye, if you unlock the big lock
and then you lock the... You
your Yale.
- Well, no, he wouldn't be able to have a big key round his neck.
- You obviously aren't that security conscious
if you've only got a
Yale lock at all times.
- I've only got a Yale lock.
- DAVID: - I think if Sheila was that
,
she wouldn't tie her key to her cat.
- So two weeks ago, you went to the theatre
and you got back at sort of half ten at night, 11 o'clock.
- Yeah. - What time do you get back from the theatre, usually about 11?
- About 11 yeah. - Just making a note of this, I'm going to rob you.
- All right, what are you going to say?
- Lie. - You think it's a lie. - Lie. I'm
Mark, lie.
- I think she's too sensible to do this, Sheila. - Yeah.
- OK, you're saying it's a lie. Sheila, truth or lie?
- Well, it is...
..a lie.
- Yes, it's a lie.
Sheila doesn't keep a spare front door key on her cat's collar.
