Burton Dasset: Welcome to Husborne Crawley on this gloomy evening. And this is the 745th time that we have commemorated the death of a celebrity.
Hnaef: And by assisting at this service I have just marked up the most appearances as assistant at a Beaker Folk commemoration.
Burton Dasset: Overtaking Charlii, who has sadly suffered a hamstring strain at the Ash Wednesday meeting.
Hnaef: And the altar party procession is keeping to a strict 4-3-2-1, with the tea light bearers just behind the lead druid, and Young Keith in the holding position.
Burton: He's holding a copy of "The Wee Worship Book", by the Iona Community.
Hnaef: But the acolytes will be keen to overlap wherever possible.
Burton: And we've had word through of why Archdruid Eileen won't be leading the line today.
Hnaef: She's in her office, weeping and hugging a sheepskin coat.
Burton: So am I. But I'm playing through the pain.
Hnaef: Cortisone Injection?
Burton: Didn't I see them supporting Hawkwind in 1984?
Hnaef: But the final whistle has blown. And once again it's a win for time.
Burton: Yes. Time has overcome again. Will it ever stop rolling like a stream?
Hnaef: Well, it's got Real Madrid in the next round. So let's see.
