Michael Martin Interview

MICHEAL MARTIN SITS AT A DESK OPPOSITE BRIAN, A BANK MANAGER WHO HAS BEEN GIVING HIM AN INTERVIEW FOR A TELLER POSITION.

BRIAN:
So Michael, your CV looks good, interviews gone well. I'd say you're a bit overqualified but if you're willing I am. We can start you at the end of June when you're available. Have you got any questions for me?

MM:
Not really all seems fairly straightforward. How does it work with the extras then?

BRIAN:
Extras?

MM:
Yeah you know..Perks? Do I just help myself or is there some sort of paperwork trail?

BRIAN:
(CONFUSED)There's tea and coffee in the canteen...

MM TAPS HIS NOSE

MM:
I gets ya. Say no more, say no more. I'll be discreet.

MM STANDS TO LEAVE. THEY SHAKE HANDS. BRIAN IS LEFT LOOKING VERY CONFUSED.

END

I get where you going with this, but maybe it isn't exagerated enough.

Especially as one of the biggest MP cons was a £400 month none receiptable food allowance..

I know what you're saying. I cut and chopped this, it was too long. It had Martin as an almost Fagan-esque villain rubbing his hands together.

Oh well looks like a couple of misses for me today.

I wouldn't call it a miss, just needs a little bit of exageration in my view.

Thanks Sooty. I'm depressed today. Back from holiday Teary
