Yes, but it was restored 8 years ago and has never been touched since.  What do these people expect?  It's electromechanical and Martin's comments just frustrate as does Clive Nolan's apathy.

FWIW, it irritated me, too. If you looked like Clive Nolan, you'd probably be apathetic, too. For those of you not in the know, he still wears a '1986-style' long coat, even in the bath. It fails to hide his vast girth.
