The game is that we blindfold the bride and line up the groom and groomsmen in random order, and she has to feel every dude’s junk and guess who the groom is while everyone else watches.

‘My father.

‘He flew in bombers for the RAF during WWII. Never had any bad or scary stories and made the war sound like a lark.

‘He saw me playing a video game called “tailgunner” where you play from the POV of the tailgunner shooting at fighter planes.

‘My father watches and says “We never got to know the tailgunners on missions. We didn’t want to. After the mission the flight crew and bombardier walked away and did not look back. The gunners rarely lasted the mission; someone else had to hose out the back where they had been.”

‘You could see on his face that the game had triggered him.’
