>> Yet more passengers for Golgafrinchan Ark Fleet Ship B.
I've just looked up the full list...all I could remember were telephone sanitisers and management consultants.
"telephone sanitisers, account executives, hairdressers, tired TV producers, insurance salesmen, personnel officers, security guards, public relations executives, and management consultants."
What I do remember is that around the time that was broadcast 40ish years ago, a friend and colleague of mine was trying to emigrate to Australia. They turned him down, and he took it as a personal insult. There was a list of favoured occupations and he didn't qualify on those or any other criteria despite or maybe because of having a PPE degree from Oxford.
The list of occupations that would have got him into Oz at the time was remarkably similar to the above. I remember it having hairdressing and insurance sales on it.
