I remember some years ago, a colleague recalls a situation in the hold at Ockham. An aircraft bust it`s level, he instructed BA-XXX to turn left immediately (Not the offending a/c) and then observed on radar that it was in fact turning right. He then instructed BA to turn left,left immediately. BA-XXX said I AM TURNING LEFT!!!!! The pilot took control of the situation, turned left and resolved a nasty situation.
Additionally, a friend of mine, having been left without an aeroplane with the demise of Concord, was on an A320 command course. I asked him how he found it and his reply was `What the xxxxxxx hell is it going to do next.
