Description: Leonard Rossiter and Joan Collins are served Cinzano while on a plane. He waxes lyrical about the drink, she starts impersonating him, he apologises for being boring. Leonard nearly knocks Joans drink onto her when he accidently tips her table over, she lifts the drink in time. He apologises and pats the seat which presses the recline button, she suddenly tips back and tips the drink down herself. Ends with large Cinzano label.
