P.C. Bourne joined the Colonel's regiment on Mission 10 10 Zürich. He was found languishing on a market stall with a group of similar looking characters and having no recollection of his real identity. The only clue was a micro chip embedded in his arm and carrying the number of a Swiss bank account. However, on visiting the bank, it appeared that the safety deposit box to which the number referred had already been cleared out by a man who resembled the actor Matt Damon. P.C. Bourne is still searching for his true identity and has pledged his future to the Colonel until such time as his identity is revealed.

P.C. Bourne has an unaccountable affinity for trams.

P.C. Bourne's mentalist round

This was added to the draw in Mission 11 11 Gdańsk. As P.C. Bourne is struggling to find his true identity, he is entitled to steal one identity on each break. To do this, the Colonel's regiment must each declare a destination of their choice at the first night meal, which gets added to a list. This list must then be carried around with them for the following two days, until a mentalist of quality is found. Once a mentalist has been discovered, the Colonel's Regiment must make contact with the mentalist and ask him or her to select a destination from their list. P.C. Bourne then steals the identity of this mentalist and adds their choice of destination to the draw as his own choice.

Interaction with Gløgg

If Gløgg bums P.C. Bourne, he loses his destination.

If P.C. Bourne is helped, he steals another identity. He therefore duplicates a destination put in by any of the Colonel's Regiment or by any of the mascots who hold a destination (decided at random). This becomes "Gløgg's choice".

It should be noted that all "mentalists" consulted are not actually mentalists - in the main they are nice people whom the Colonel's Regiment have had enormous pleasure to meet and spend (brief) quality time with on each break. The only genuine mentalist consulted thus far was Steve the Geordie mentalist during Mission 13 13 25 Reykjavík.
