Tea and crumpets most likely.

C'mon Joe, be fair. His hands were tied by the socialists in power in UK.
They have not even been able to find out where the hostages are being held.
What was wanted was quick decisive recovery action while the hostages were
still nearby but the Uk government would have hung theat Captain out to dry
if he had done that on his own initiaive and it was unsuccessful..
