     1        really toasted -- I mean, there were patches of mould
     2        visible in this toasted bun.
     3
     4   Q.   Blue mould on toasted -----
     5        A.  Patches of blue mould, yes.
     6
     7   Q.   Do you remember the film well enough to remember that --
     8        my Lord, the reference is our pages 6 and 21 of the
     9        transcript -- there are quite lengthy shots of red waste
    10        bins?  You will not see them in the transcript, I am
    11        sorry.  If you would like to look at the film, of course
    12        I will show it to you -- of the red waste bins?
    13        A.  Yes.
    14
    15   Q.   In the earlier one, which is the one which appears or is
    16        reflected by page 6 of the transcript, do you recall that
    17        at least one of the bins had quite a lot of buns in it?
    18        A.  I cannot recall that detail of the film, but -- I do
    19        not know.
    20
    21   Q.   The practice was, was it not -----
    22        A.  Pardon?
    23
    24   Q.   The practice was, was it not, Miss Tobin, to throw away
    25        unsatisfactory produce?
    26        A.  That was, in the main, the practice.  During peak
    27        hours, that practice sometimes failed to be observed
    28        because of the pressure.
    29
    30   Q.   That would also apply to crumbled and broken patties?
    31        A.  That is correct, yes.
    32
    33   Q.   There is a passage in the transcript -- and this time
    34        I would invite you to look at it, because I have a request
    35        for information, if you can remember -- page 12, really
    36        starting at the last quarter of the page, "Strand kitchen
    37        Michael in shot"; yes?
    38        A.  Yes.
    39
    40   Q.   Michael: "We are going to use her.  All right.  Six more
    41        down straightaway.  Throw those away.  Throw those away.
    42        Forget it.  Six more down, six more down."
    43
    44        What were the six, can you remember, that he was saying
    45        should be thrown away?
    46        A.  I would think, from memory, that those are probably the
    47        meat patties.
    48
    49   Q.   Do you remember why he was saying they should be thrown
    50        away? 
    51        A.  Because they were broken, I would imagine from that. 
    52 
    53   Q.   This was deliberately and by agreement -----
    54
    55   MR. MORRIS:  The witness is saying she imagines.  If it is
    56        important -- I do not know how important it might or might
    57        not be -- then it should be shown.  But I do not think it
    58        is.
    59
    60   MR. RAMPTON:  The point which Mr. Morris has missed, my Lord,
