Could you give the whole clue? Not everyone has a copy of the paper.

Thanks. This is not a phrase I know.
Can you explain why it is "copy"
I have got as far as tide y backwards but how do you get "cop"?
I have a feeling I am being thick.

A 'Busy' is a slang term for a 'Cop' or police officer.

Hi Rusty, I first heard this on Brookside, about a million years ago - remember that! Barry Grant was forever saying the 'Busys were after him'.

Ah, you have the advantage on me, Brendan!
I have never watched Brookside!
I probably read it somewhere.

Thanks for this.
I too have never watched Brookside, but I'm glad I asked the question.
