Further details
Clive tells Proctor that he has landed a job in the police force and will be leaving Northend airport. It is a shocking revelation, but she is far too worried about something else to think about collecting for a leaving present.
Passengers have been taking photos of the Border Force officers that portray them in a bad light.
