He has also arranged for our intrepid military chopper jockey to fetch the two participants from that passing cruise liner. They are those very well known Russian tennis stars, Hannah Gruntalotski and Maria Shriekitova. Arrangements have also been made with a sub clause in their contracts that should we pass through a tropical storm during the match, they are to stop playing tennis immediately and start mud wrestling instead.
TANNOY: Varley, in order to support this spectacular spectacle, and in light of the fact that we are in the Southern Hemisphere, Woluld you please light the St. Elmo's Fire for all our new hands who have not witnessed that before?
