Money

DAY: INT

SOLICITORS OFFICE: NIGERIA

SOLICITOR AND CLIENT ARE SITTING OPPOSITE AT A DESK

CLIENT (Mr Mufassa)
When are you going to get me my money?

SOLICITOR
Mr Mufassa, since your father's sad demise I have tried every
avenue to procure the funds. Unfortunately as he left no known will
I cannot transfer any monies directly to you.

MR MUFASSA
But there must be about 20 Million dollars.

SOLICITOR
There is actually 22 million dollars in his dormant bank account.

MR MUFASSA
There must be a way that I can get the money my dear father meant to leave to me.

SOLICITOR
The only possible way is to transfer the money to an overseas client
preferably someone in the UK and then you, by mutual agreement with that client
travel to England to collect it in person

MR MUFASSA
Have you tried that?

SOLICITOR
I have e mailed several people residing in the UK with this proposal

MR MUFASSA
And?

SOLICITOR
The ones that did reply told me to FUCK OFF.

Did something similar - like your ending.

I never saw that one Lazzard. Ah well - great minds.. eh

Nice take on the concept, I really liked it, and Lazzard, yours was good as well.

Both of yours were good. Great joke at the end. I would love to see these 2 sketches together.

I would love to see these 2 sketches together.

As long as they don't actually have children.
I think they're a bit too closely related.

It's an amusing idea, but I think you need to come up with some stronger laughs along the way.

Lazzards sketch is very funny. I liked that.

I think the whole email scam thing is a common theme, but saying that I don't think I've ever seen a broadcast sketch on the subject.
