You could put it like that, Paul. I remember this from the early 80's, and I utterly hated it. The most aggrieving game-over speech I've ever heard - "Concentrate on your training". Even Millionaires' "Get a job!" or Vectors' "hit the showers" were better.

Had a look at this today, looks to have had leaking batteries at some point. I think he's had a go at fixing it too :/
