Short and silly one.
INT. PUB - DAY
2 men are sat at the bar.
MAN1
Hey, have you heard about Dave?
MAN2
No, what?
MAN1
Apparently he's batting for the other team now.
MAN2
He's gay??
MAN1
Noo. Think about it. What does Dave like to do in his spare time?
MAN2
Have sex with men??
MAN1
No! Think sport.
MAN2
Oh, cricket.
MAN1
Right. And how many local teams are there?
MAN2
Two. Oh I get it now. He's playing cricket for the other team.
MAN1
Exactly.
MAN2
Why did you say he was gay then?
Silly and funny, just the way I like them.
My only crit.
I don't think you need the last line.
Cheers Craig.
I really like the last line. It's very 'matter of fact' stupid! Short, snappy sketches are the future.
I liked it and I liked the last line.
I would go further than that.
It HAS to have the last line.
Cheers guys. I agree, I do quite like the last line and I think it kind of ties up the whole sketch nicely.
Nice bit of word play and a great stupid punch.
Sorry Chris, I like you but I didn't like this sketch. Which is weird, cos I normally like short and silly ones (is that an innuendo? *shrugs*)
Very good, can picture it nicely
Loved the last line and must stay
You could have a colection of these type of sketches.
Two women sitting at a table, one says "I've got one in the oven you know" etc etc to reveal a cake/loaf of bread. Last line being, "So why did you say you were pregnant"
Good enough as is for me.
As soon as "batting for the other team" was mentioned I'm afraid the mix-up and outcome were pretty predictable. Sorry.
Bo.
I like I like, well played sir.
Cheers for the comments guys. Greatly appreciated.
