In a daring night assault using one company of airlifted troops, Slater takes the fort while Falkenberg marches the remainder of the newly organized 501st Provisional Battalion up the Jordan River valley to relieve him. Holding the fort is not easy; though disorganized and untrained, the enemy outnumbers Slater′s A Company almost ten to one and has mortars and machine guns as well as smallarms. Although A Company takes heavy casualties, Slater holds his position long enough to delay the bandits until Falkenberg arrives with heavy artillery to break the siege. Slater and A Company are decorated for their valiant stand at Fort Beersheba. After establishing the fort as a base, Slater and the other officers watch the restless and combat- eager Marines suffer more and more from le cafard, aka “the Bug,” a kind of military cabin fever frequently endured by soldiers of the French Foreign Legion who are the ancestors of the CoDominium Line Marines.

Jones was the author of the Handbook to the Ferns of New Zealand, chiefly compiled from Dr Hooker's "Flora Novae Zelandiae", Sir Wm. J. Hooker's "Species Filicum", etc. The 32 page pamphlet was sold for two shillings and six pence to raise funds for expenses incurred in the erection of St. Mary's Church, Parnell, Auckland. The handbook was printed in 1861, and Eric Godley regarded it as the first Flora printed in New Zealand, 'holding the fort' until the printing of Hooker's Handbook of the New Zealand Flora appeared in 1864. Godley notes that although much of the material in the handbook was borrowed from Hooker, the sections which are Jones's own show her to be "no mean botanist". Hooker’s Handbook of the New Zealand Flora (1864) references the following Jones' collections: Todea africana at Hokianga; Adiantum formosum at Kaipara and Whangarei; Loxsoma cunninghamii at Waitemata; Gymnogramme leptophylla on the summit of Mount Wellington; Hypolepis distans at Manakau Heads; Loxsoma cunninghamii at Coromandel; Nephrodium molle at Rotomahana; Aspidium cystostegia, Cystopteris fragilis, Lomaria elongata, Lomaria vulcanica and Marattia salicina in the Mt Egmont Range; Hymenophyllum aeruginosum at Wellington; Lomaria vulcanica at Nelson.

Kelly's first major TV appearances were in the ITV sitcom Holding the Fort (1980–82) and as a panellist in the game show Punchlines (1981–84) hosted by Lennie Bennett on ITV but he became famous as part of the original presenting team on Game for a Laugh for the same producers and network. For the next 14 years his work centred on light entertainment shows such as Kelly's Eye (TVS sketch show 1985), You Bet! (LWT/ITV) (1991–95) and, most notably, Stars in Their Eyes (Granada/ITV), which he took over from Russ Abbot, who was brought in as a temporary host after original presenter Leslie Crowther suffered serious head injuries in a car crash in October 1992. Abbot had only hosted one episode, an Elvis Presley special. However, it later became apparent that Crowther would not be able to return, as he retired in 1994, and died 2 years later. Therefore Kelly became the permanent host of the show until he left in March 2004. Simultaneously, he was narrator for the ITV series After They Were Famous from 1999 to 2005. He continued to act occasionally, notably in the Channel 4 comedy Relative Strangers, and in the theatre production of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
