A woman was arrested in Oslo on Thursday after walking out of a shopping centre with a 42-inch flat screen television between her legs.
The woman, who was accompanied by a male companion, wandered out of the Elkjøp shopping centre in the Skøyen area of Oslo with the substantial item under her long flowing skirt. 
A witness alarmed the police after spotting the cumbersome couple leaving the shopping centre at around 8pm on Thursday. 
The woman was able to carry the widescreen television clasped between her legs and well hidden under her long skirt, to a nearby bus stop. The police however took up the chase and the pair were apprehended as their bus headed out of the city centre. 
Oslo police reported that the incident was all in a day's work. 
"It is not unusual that thieves put bits and bobs under their skirts of large sweaters," Tor Grøttom at Oslo police said.

    Widescreen girl.
It harkens back to the Octomom thread from a couple of hours ago.

    Years go some woman tried to walk out of a grocery store with large frozen turkey between her legs. She got caught when a store clerk caught up with her, made conversation, and walked her back and forth in front of the store till the turkey dropped.

    Ah hum?
I just bought a 42 in screened TV, the box is big and really awkward.
Was she really tall and carried it vertically?
Was she fat and waddled anyway?
The fact she got the TV to the bus (an unusual get away vehicle) is amazing and clever.
I’d almost be willing to give her a TV.

    I didn’t know that they grew them that large in Norway.
The last time I was there I was amazed at how beautiful and statuesque most Norwegian women were/are. If I stayed there much longer, I might have come home with a new bride. Maybe things are changing there.
