In my job I've often wanted to deal with witnesses, eyewitness, experts, you name it, in exactly the same way.

It reminds me of my children when I ask them to be quiet.

Swissman:
You might like Jeeves & Wooster (Fry & Laurie) about an aristocratic playboy and his butler. P.G. Wodehouse wrote the short stories and these two are perfectly cast for the roles.

Hugh Laurie is great in the "Blackadder" series, especially as dimwitted Crown Prince in the third series, and the idiotically cheerful Lieutenant in the fourth.

Laurie also wrote a novel, an espionage spoof, called The Gun Seller.
My wife bought it for me at a rummage sale a couple weeks back.
I just finished reading it and found it funny and devoid of gun mistakes.
Laurie said on The Tonight Show that he'd taken his kids to a range in the U.S. to shoot handguns because, "We can't do that at home."
I wonder who advised him about weapons when he was writing the book?
