British Comedy Awards Sketch

INT. OFFICE - DAY

CHANNEL 4's HEAD OF PROGRAMMING IS SITTING AT HIS DESK DAYDREAMING

FADE TO RICKY GERVAIS HOSTING THE BRITISH COMEDY AWARDS

RICKY:
A lot of people still think that women aren't funny. They must have just watched 'Miranda'.

So Rob Brydon's up for best comedy actor award for The Trip, but Steve Coogan's been snubbed. That's like giving Spit the Dog an award and telling Bob Carolgees to f**k off.

You have to work hard to be a comedian; obviously Michael McIntyre is the exception that proves the rule.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Jack Whitehall. I always wanted to know what would happen if you crossed Russell Brand's style with Stewart Lee's material.

BACK TO REALITY AND A LOOK OF SHOCK ON THE MAN'S FACE

FADE TO FRANKIE BOYLE HOSTING THE BRITISH COMEDY AWARDS

FRANKIE:
Ant & Dec are up for the best comedy entertainment personality? These pair of c**ts haven't got a personality between them. They look like the result of an angry dwarf raping a down-syndromed midget. Twice.

Rob Brydon's also up for an award. I'm guessing it's not for most attractive male. That c**t looks like his mother was raped by a down-syndromed inkpad.

I can see Ian Hislop there in the audience. Looking like his mother was raped by a down-syndromed pool ball.

And there's Jo Brand, looking looks like she has just been raped by...hang on, I've spotted the flaw.

BACK TO REALITY AND A LOOK OF SHEER TERROR ON THE MAN'S FACE

FADE TO JONATHAN ROSS HOSTING THE BRITISH COMEDY AWARDS

JONATHAN IS BEING A CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONAL; THE COMICS IN THE AUDIENCE ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME

BACK TO REALITY

CHANNEL 4's HEAD OF PROGRAMMING:
I think I'll cancel that Lifetime Achievement Award for Andrew Sachs.

Laughing out loud Gerry, I want to be the first BCGer to nominate this sketch for best sketch of 2011.

Very Funny, well observed with each line inch perfect. Laughing out loud

Bloody hell :) Thanks very much Will.

Yes this is very good. Very clever idea with a realistic feel throughout. Lovely sketch Gerry.

Spot on funny.

Though I think in reality Gervais is known for being a bit of a Lee fan.

That wasn't meant as a dig at Lee, it was referencing Whitehall's alleged plagiarism, the wee scamp :)

Don't tell me there's two Sunshines now, it's hard enough to win a sketch comp as it is :)

Nicely executed pastiches of Gervais and Boyle.

I don't think Gervais would ever say that about Miranda. But despite that, very funny! ;)
