Kim Jong-il Sketch

Here's a topical, I don't do them often because there usually rubbish. Anyway, let me know what you think. Cheers.

TWO MEN (DAVE AND MICK) ARE SITTING NEXT TO EACH OTHER. DAVE IS READING A NEWSPAPER.

Dave
Bloody hell Mick, have you seen this?

Mick
Seen what?

Dave
You know that Kim Jong-il?

Mick
Who?

Dave
North Korean leader. He's their head of state, a bit like Gordon Brown, just a bit more popular.

Mick
Oh yeah, what about him?

Dave
Apparently he didn't turn up to a parade he was supposed to attend.

Mick
Where the hell is he then?

Dave
That's the thing, no-one actually knows. A lot of people are speculating he's ill.

Mick
Ah that makes sense, maybe he has the flu.

Dave
(GIVES A CONFUSED LOOK TO MICK) So what, your telling me he missed a vitally important parade because he had the flu?

Mick
It's not just any old flu is it?

Dave
What do you mean?

Mick
Well it's the asian flu isn't it? I heard it's a killer at this time of the year.

Dave
(LOOKS AT MICK) Don't be soft! He hasn't got asian flu! Anyway, as far as the world is concerned he is missing.

Mick
Oh (PAUSES AND LOOKS AT DAVE) Have they looked under Karen Matthew's bed?

Good subject, but it feels like there's to much exposition for the material.

Also the Karen Mathews seems an odd conection.

You've written better.

Agree with sooty. I don't know who Karen is, though.

It's partially your avatar, Joel, but I crack up whenever I see this line now.

Karen Mathews dozy mum who hid her 10 year old daughter(Shanon) in her boyfriends divan, and then she pretended she was kidnapped.

Is currently on trial.

Tried to get money out of the McCanes otherwise no one knows why she did something so deeply stupid.

Her excuse was something to do with trying to get away from her 17 year old boyfriend (the mums not Shanons)

Mick
Ah that makes sense

I don't know about you but I was expecting that to go in a totally different direction. A more obvious one it's true but I never grew out of stuff like that making me laugh.

He's ILL!!!
