Just thought I'd make people think the NR running order has landed.

It hasn't.

ha ha! :)

Isn't this week the first week of the new run?

If so, should be an interesting running order.

Also, I got another cheque today from NR.
Funnily enough, I had FAR LESS sketches in this run, yet the cheque was noticeably bigger than last time.

Let's have a bet on who gets the most.

I wager a poem praising the winner.

Any one going to top that?

I haven't got anything to wager.

It definitely won't be me getting the most in.
I only submitted a handful of sketches, and they were mostly "made to order" from their material requests.

Back on the mo-fo block, homies!

Cliff is. But Jordan and Peter aren't. I'll PM you.

Yay!

weird how they've used a couple of my oldies, whereas my handful of made to order sketches, based on their material requests didn't make it.
:S

:S

Sometimes their material requests won't result in any decent submissions, so they don't run with them. Or maybe other people wrote better ones than yourself. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

not worried about it, just surprised they used oldie sketches that I sent in ages ago. :P

There you go.
This week's running order.

Sorry about the mess of the formatting.
It's coz I copy and paste straight from the NR spreadsheet file.

Why do they put it in a spreadsheet anyway????

Oh! Got one in :) That's a first!

Thanks for putting it up Mikey, see your Orville one made it in the end:)

Well done, Rob. :)
(although, I always thought you'd got sketches and songs in before)

Yeah, I resent that Orville (Gordon) song to them upon the change of run.
It's been used two weeks in a row now.

I got another resend in last week too. My Hitler Energy Prices sketch, which I was surprised they actually used last week.
But they haven't used it this time. My guess is that it didn't go down to well with the audience as it was a bit risque.

This week's NR running order.

Seems very similar to last week's.
