Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In "Devil's Back", No 6, (who lost his name "Lord Harry" due to recklessness) becomes a Determinator in the face of a gale when he is sent out to rescue some injured mountain climbers.
    • The Truck lurched and swayed as the wind tore at it. It whimpered and groaned as though in pain.
      "She wants to go back," thought No. 6. And so do I; but we can't. The Manager's relying on me to save those climbers. We must go through - we must! We must!"

And he does it too, saving the lives of the injured climbers, and earning the name "Patrick" after one of the climbers he helped rescue.
