The last hangman.

Did you watch it on the tv last night?

Is there anyone on here who could do the job, if it still existed?

The job does exist and is quite common in the middle-east. It's a public event in Iran.

U never said 'only England'

I missed the prog.
Could I do the job ? Yes and No.
Yes , if the criminal justice system worked.
No , because it makes too many mistakes.
Just look at recent history. The number of easy options the police have taken - Gill Dando case being the latest.

I started to watch it and it looked really good, but I was a bit squeamish and turned it over. I couldn't do the job.

I remember someone a few years ago, who was in Kuwait for a while. He said it was Friday afternoons and a truck would pull up with the guilty person on board. They would then carry out a public execution on a srteet corner. If they spotted a westener , they would push them to the front to see the full gory of it. Off with the head with a sword. My friend send it was normaly one of the lower classes who got the chop. Mainly Indians working in Kuwait who had broken the law.

I really wanted to watch that but my friend decided to have an impromtu birthday bash....we all got two hours notice! I couldn't record it either as my TV's built in hard-drive died last week. So I missed it...d'oh! Was it good?

And to answer your Q....Noooo, I couldn't do it.

Yep, Randy, that's why we hold on to human rights as much as we can here!
