Right, judging time! And thanks to Ham, one of NASA's space chimps!


Third place to Tashengurt with:
Due to an error in translation, early soviet fly by wire systems relied heavily on micro chimps

Second to Clockwork Mouse for:
The DCI on same-sex partnerships in the military contained some glaring loopholes.

But clearly inspired and with multiple very good entries, the winner is:

Fox3WheresMyBanana with:

Over to you Fox3!

"Yeah yeah, ok Kid, so Specsavers may give you a second pair, but do they give you the chance to kill with them?"

or

"Yep. we call it the rectal probe kid, because if you are on the other end you are seriously in the s***"

or

"That's right, a bit to the left, there, see you should be getting Sky Sports on it now"
