All they need is some young bimbo who looks good in a short skirt and is able to operate a number solving computer, since we all know that TV...

The reason I wasn't 100% sure is if MORTICE referred only to the noun and not the verb - a bit like PRACTICE if it weren't American. I was 95% sure, and Mike confirmed it, so I don't see where there's any contention here.
