Write gag/pun to this pic for - 118 118 - No01

Please read before posting, thx :)

Been intouch with 'em with an idea :)

That being using cartoon illustrations with gag lines for 118 as well (like those for the greeting cards)

I've had a prompt reply thanking me for the idea and that it's a 'maybe', however he said after looking at the three examples I sent that they would have to be much, much cleaner.

So my intentions are to do a few (more suitable) idea's, send 'em in and see where it goes.

They have NOT said yes to this just 'maybe', and I've not a clue what they would pay for a pic & pun but obviously I'd split it.

My thinking being is 'IF' they do say yes, then I'd imagine they could take on more than one caption/gag line for each pic, as they could send the same pic out each time with a different gag line... dunno!

K', Pic No01 is something basic, please keep in mind the 'much, much cleaner' as mentioned above.

You got anything for a sore throat?

Doctor, I hope you don't mind me saying, but you're going terribly bald on top.

Gerry the Giraffe went to Harley Street, they were head and shoulders above the rest.

Oh dear, why do all doctors look like Gladstone Small to me!

(one for the cricket fans there!)

Oh dear, why do all doctors look like Clive James to me!

Doctor, could you give me something, I look really weedy when I run.

Doctor, I think I might have that Peter Crouch Syndrome.

:D No neck Gladstone!!! What did happen to him?

Somehow a giraffe got into the Telepod with me and I didn't notice.

Giraffe: Why am I wearing clothes? Gosh! How am I speaking?

Doctor: I think you are speaking very well for a giraffe...

Are you having a giraffe, mate?

The doctor began to think George the Giraffe's ailments were just a tall story.

I'm wondering if you might want to rethink these cartoons Random, or do another set, so that the recipient of the text message is targetted rather than the pic itself being funny in it's own right, if you see what I mean.

So for example if you took the doctor out of this pic you could have the caption,

'Stick your neck out it's your round!'

So they could be texted to mates in a pub etc, you could have a whole set of series.

Birthday
Leaving Work
Retirement
Marriage
Anniversary
Out on a date
etc etc

??

Doc, I think I got whiplash. They told me you'd have a neck brace for me?

Everything I say just goes straight over people's heads.

As it were. :)

So doc, you're saying you're not going to stick your neck out and tell me what's wrong with me?

What do you mean an abnormality? I know I have two hearts...
