I thinks it's great. The comedy like most sketches imo will come in how it's said and cut. You should film it...

I'm a bit confused by this. Mostly because it seems to go from a radio sketch into a TV sketch.

Is the joke that the old woman thinks she is hip and modern like the advert?

I quite like this, and can see a follow up with a mum who's getting her house reposessed.

The dark side of jolly adverts is always a rich vein to tap.

Short and to the point. Nice.

Oooops!

Used wrong direction (Grams). It's a TV advert parody. Edited and hopefully confusion cleared up
