An Italian pensioner called the police after her television broke down in the middle of a popular soap opera.
Sofia Torino, 90, told officers to come to her flat in Pescara, southern Italy, to deal with an "emergency".
When they arrived at the scene, they found her in a panic because her TV had broken during The Bold and the Beauitiful.
Mrs Torino reportedly told officers: "You have to help, or else I will miss the end."
The officers told the woman not to call police for household repairs but fixed the TV for her anyway, news website Tgcom reported.

Dispatch issue. Ours screen calls much better than that.
Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine
