JET LAG! (41 page)

However, Todd and Stumpy were a different matter.

After being removed from the Tornado, they were separated, transported to London and fully debriefed by MI6. The Prime Minister had no further involvement, as his perceived knowledge of the affair would only lend credence to their ‘story’. MI6 determined, after several months, that both men were either delusional or had been deeply brainwashed by the very terrorists who had carried out the hoax.

Both men spent the rest of their lives under heavy sedation in Broadmoor Psychiatric Hospital for the Criminally Insane.

As for the letter from Churchill?

Who knows what happened to it – or indeed, if it ever existed?
