So your testimony is about a third more reliable than John's. Or is it fifty per cent? I can never keep those things straight.
Of course, all historical documents are written by people with their own agendas, and most biographies or autobiographies are written towards or after the end of the life they chronicle (or used to be, till celebrities started putting out an autobiography every other year to remind people they still exist) so I suppose it would depend on how good the Gospel writers were at taking notes.
I don't throw things at the telly (it's quite a big one for the benefit of the Countess's eyesight, and I couldn't afford to replace it) but there was some snarling, muttering and shouting from both of us.
EDIT: looks as if the line item in Pilate's report will come up in next week's effort.
