Listen to this poem ”ABC” by Spike Milligan, read it and decide which letters of the alphabet are not included.

It was midnight in the schoolroom And every desk was shut, When suddenly from the alphabet Was heard a loud ‘tut-tut! Said A to B, ‘I don’t like C, His manners are a lack. For all I ever see I of C Is semi-circular back!’ ‘I disagree’, said D to B, ‘I’ve never found C so. From where I stand, he seems to be An uncompleted O’. C was vexed, ‘I’m much perplexed, You criticize my shape. I’ve made like that, to help spell Cat And Cow and Cool and Cape.’ ‘He is right’, said E, said F, ‘Whoopee!’ Said G, ’Ip, ip ip ooray!’ ‘You are dropping me,’ roared H to G. ‘Don’t do it please I pray!’ ‘Out o f my way,’ LL said to K. ’I’ll make poor I look like ILL’. To stop this stunt, J stood in front, And presto! ILL was JILL. ‘U know said V’, that W Is twice the age of me, For as a Roman V is five I’m half as young as he’. X and Y yawned sleepily, ‘Look at the time!’ they said, ‘Let’s all get off to beddy byes, They did, then, ‘Z-z-x’.

1. Where is the story set? Who speaks?

2. Can you explain, in your own words, the two descriptions of C?
