"Good Evening. There may some interuption to this evening's programme as our studios are currently under assault by the City Crime Task Force. We have exclusive coverage of Nathan Strange's one man's war against the Droid Cops but first, Sports News.
The final game of the KillerBall season between the Lorne Green Packers and the Canavaral Vikings at New Lambeau Violence Drome had to be stopped when, in a freak accident, the Zero-G was turned on.
A spokesman for the Meta City KillerBall League said that "the match will be replayed but right now it's all up in the air."
Excuse me.....intruders on Level 3. Taking direct control of corridor defences - all staff beware, danger close, I repeat DANGER CLOSE....."
