Comedy A-Z Pages:
Ernest Springer (Andrew Sachs) is a very happy man. He's just won a fortune on the football pools. Out comes the champagne. The cork pops ... and hits Ernest between the eyes, killing him.
He suddenly finds himself in the new arrivals queue in the British Section of heaven, waiting for his paperwork to be 'processed'.
He discovers that it's all been a terrible mistake - he wasn't supposed to die for many years. Unfortunately, the mistake can't be rectified because, back on Earth, both of his kidneys have been removed and used in transplant operations.
