Secretly Not Here Any More Started conversation Apr 10, 2008
Stalin, Khrushchev and Brezhnev are sat on a train, discussing the glorious future of the Soviet Union. All of a sudden, the train judders to a halt. Incensed, Stalin leans out of the window waving a revolver.
"If the driver cannot make the train work," yelled the despot, "execute the traitor and replace him!"
Khrushchev leaps forth from his seat and restrains Stalin, pulling the gun from his hand.
"No Comrade," he explains "we must re-educate the driver so that he understands why he fails, and then he will drive the train forwards."
Suddenly, both are distracted by a strange noise - they turn round to see Brezhnev leaning over the carriage's gramophone.
"Comrades, comrades," said the bushy-eyebrowed one soothingly "you're both wrong. Come, let us draw the curtains, turn up the music and simply pretend that the train is moving!"
