JAMES BOND IS BEING INTERROGATED BY BLOFELD.

JAMES
So Blofeld you expect me to talk?

BLOFELD
No Mr Bond I expect you to be mildly irritated by your haemorroids.

JAMES
How did you know about them?

BLOFELD
I've read your facebook page you should be careful who's friendship request you accept.

JAMES
You fiend. It's just that 009 had 4000 friends, I only had 3 and 1 of them was my mum.

BLOFELD
And you linked your blog to your facebook. June 23rd I think M is a lesbian? June 27th why does MI6 give me such a small gun it makes me feel inadequate, 1st of July do Tuxedos make me look gay?

JAMES
You fiend what are you going to do with it!

BLOFELD
Leak it to the tabloids! I even have your expenses claims, how many times did you flip your Aston Martin.

JAMES
You truly are a monster.

FX SOUND OF EXPLOSION GUNFIRE ETC 009 BURSTS IN.

009
The game is up Blofeld prepare to taste British justice!

BLOFELD
009. But how did you find me?

009
Easy I followed you... on Twitter, now eat eat MI6 truncheon!

FX SOUND OF 009 THUMPING BLOFELD.

JAMES
You tweeted his head in.

009
Shut up James I know you got that off the Facebook witty murder lines application.

Very good - topical and funny!

Yep the blogs were my favourite bit.

:D

Thanks I saw the story on BBC.CO.UK and then the sketch wrote it's self.

The only real challenge was getting a semi for tweated and beaten.

I liked it - especially the expenses claims line.

I feel the addition of 009 makes things a little confusing. Can you not come to a ending with just the two?

Could be right I just wanted to keep the followed on twitter line

Enjoyed this one.
Good idea, with some nice jokes in there.

Good idea, well executed. I didn't find 009 distracting.

And there was me expecting some feedback from the Griffster. Semi rhyme obviously I'm not so degenerate as to get boners from boners.

Damn it that punchline is going in my final version.

I liked that. :)

I sent a vaguely similar vox pop to NewsJack this morning:

"I hear they've taken the MI6 chief Sir John Sawer's details off Facebook for fear of him being followed. But surely you only get followed on Twitter."

Yeah, it's good. The lines are funny. Just maybe the idea is a bit obvious?

Griff's punchline is much more Bond.

(Good VP Mikey, btw.)

Dan

This line made me LOL. :P
