The Weather Brain Page 2

There let's hear it for Matt! \o/

I've given this a few listens and think it's a really good sketch. First off it's certainly funny, I like surreal very much and the atmosphere strikes the right note throughout with a nice Blue Jam-like feel. The professionalism is key, both performances are excellent. The weather brain concept is a nice one with room for recurrence I think. Sacrifice for me works well on this occasion and if you could come up with other premises around the Brain and it's workers itself you'd be onto a great thing although that's easier said than done I realise. The only minor note of criticism from me was the Leopard part which (and this is a minor thing) just didn't hang right although it did fit in with the surreal air and I do enjoy the word Leopard itself! It's also one of my favourite moments in Ripping Yarns, when they release the school Leopard!This as I say is a very small personal issue in a very fine sketch. Top work fellas.
