Or...

The day 4 F15Es (not USAF bashing here, just telling it as it happened!) free called Buchan whilst very much inside Y70.

'Deadly check...2! 3! 4!'

Buchan...'5'

'Er Deadly, check...2! 3! 4!'

'5'

Kept at it until they had cleared the airway & then replied with the usual 'good morning blah blah blah'.

When asked why he had done it, the WC told the crew room that he had no idea what else to do with a/c free calling inside controlled airspace!

You can only imagine the poor guy in Deadly 11 who must have heard '5!' and then looked over his shoulder and counted his hens, twice!
