Rorschach Test Page 3

This one was a bit too slow for me. Couple of great lines added on at the end though.

I think I used the wrong sentence there. I'm just not really sure why the psychiatrist is doing this and not sure the punchline joins the dots up.

The doctor is presenting obscene images of himself and the patient as a way of coming onto him. Sadly for him, the patient is ignorant of this. The Rorschach bit is really just a McGuffin.

Lovely stuff.
Good performances, & a funny sketch.
I did wonder if there was one picture too many shown, and also if it might have ended on the " can we do some of the inkblot tests " followed by the subtext line & the photo reveal.

The number of images shown was hard to judge. In the end we felt three was too few and five too many, so we settled on the four.

Likewise, we felt ending the sketch as per the script wasn't punchy enough so tagged it with a couple of lines we improvised on the day.

Lovely stuff. As soon as we could see the pics I got it & loved the the "Did you get my picture from face book. We are not friends are we" & your retort of "We look like friends there".
Fab!

Thanks, Charley.

Can't make 'em all laugh. Unless you write The Landlord. Name me one person who didn't like that sketch.

Very good. I love you Chopz.

What am I, chopped liver?

Oh, I like you too.

I've heard worse excuses to go on a drinking binge. Hooray!

Thanks to all who watched, appreciated. I hope one day to break out of playing "The person who is awkward about another person being more confident than them". But till then I'll flutter my eyelashes at Leevil.

But it's the role you were born to play!

Don't worry, Stu, I've got a sketch on the brew that we can shoot in single location that'll give you all the opportunity you need to broaden your acting horizons. I'm still going to play the crass douchebag though.

Laughing out loud

:D

I one day hope to take advantage of that awkward nervousness.

Well it's excellent up to this bit, which I don't understand.

DOCTOR:
(READING ALOUD AS HE MAKES A NOTE) "Subject demonstrates total immunity to subtext..."

Although it is reminiscent of the joke Sooty mentions.

VIDEO:
For me it's only funny if the guy sees men f**king where there are none. The reversal where he sees inkblots where there are men f**king seems over-conceptualized to me. Nice prop though. Lovingly made - by Laws, obviously. The crown was also a nice touch, although a tiara would be more accurate.

Acting; much better from Dave - no cocaine eyes and good normal-dude hair. But why wasn't Stott on the couch? He could have added another tier of irony, since he's so gay looking. And sounding.

I suppose you're going to tell me next that my having sex with men is gay too. *Shakes Head* This country.

Not the way you do it ducky.
