I'm guessing that "people carriers" are that kind of giant terminator first depicted in Terminator IV - you know, the "harvesters."
My question: What's a "fitty?"
I expect that, this article appearing in a British newspaper, Mr. Thornhill's implants were paid for by National Health. If not the implants, themselves, then at least the subsequent operations to remove them and suppress the massive infections he'll get will be paid for by the tax payers.

My question: What's a "fitty?"
A "people carrier" is British for a minivan.
"Fitty" is Brit slang for someone who is attractive (i.e. fit). He's also called "fetching" a little later. I detect sarcasm.
