I was just going through some old Gambling Bill Committee transcripts (as one does) and I realised I’d forgotten about this little gem:
30 November 2004, afternoon session, Col. 265.
Mr. Banks: To save me wasting my pension in these arcades when I have time to spare, will my hon. Friend clarify whether grabber machines are random? If so, how is the grabber randomised? That is the important point. We need to know that. If the machines are random they should pay out a certain percentage of soft cuddly toys. I need to know that for my future.
Mr. Caborn: My hon. Friend’s future hangs on a grabber. I will try to elicit that information from those who do all the research into grabber machines. I am told that they are programmed to drop.
Mr. Banks: A bit like my balls.
Mr. Caborn: That may have to be left off the record.
Mr. Page: I shall complain if it is.
