That's a bit harsh.

Cruel but fair, that's our motto.

Interviewer: But the police have film of the TV aerial contractor
actually nailing your head to the floor.
Tenant: Oh yeah, well - he did that, yeah.
Interviewer: Why?
Tenant: Well he had to, didn't he? I mean, be fair, there was
nothing else he could do. I mean, I had transgressed the unwritten
law. Interviewer: What had you done?
Tenant: Er... Well he never told me that. But he gave me his word
that it was the case, and that's good enough for me with Mr Wright.
I mean, he didn't want to nail my head to the floor. I had to insist.
He wanted to let me off. There's nothing Mr Wright wouldn't do for
you. Interviewer: And you don't bear him any grudge?
Tenant: A grudge! Old Wrighty? He was a real darling.
Interviewer: I understand he also nailed your wife's head to a
coffee table. Isn't that right Mrs O' Tracey?
[Camera pans to show woman with coffee table nailed to head.]
Mrs O' Tracey: Oh, no. No. No.
Tenant: Yeah, well, he did do that. Yeah, yeah. He was a cruel man,
but fair.

You've been watching too much Monty Python, Bill.

I can't find that sketch?
