DAVID DIMBLEBY IS TALKING TO PROFESSOR BROWN

DAVID
So professor you are a leading expert on George Bernard Shaw and you've recently made a quite remarkable discovery.

PROFESSOR
Yes we found a long lost joke of his hidden in a portrait of a famous activist.

DAVID
Remarkable can you share the joke?

PROFESSOR
I'm afraid not it's been sold.

DAVID
Who'd want a 100 year old joke, that's probably not that funny?

HORNE AND CORDON WALK ON.

HORNE
We would! Knock knock.

CORDON
Who's there?

HORNE
I'm a fat bastard look at my belly!

PULLS UP HIS SHIRT AND CORDON LICKS HIS BELLY BUTTON.

I like it.
I just wish we could Get the real Horne & Corden to appear in our sketches, we'd have a field day.

Echo Fred's comments.

Yeah, like it too. How you'd convey it was them without using them might be a problem, but fine otherwise.

Dan

I don't really get it; but, then, I've never seen 'Horne and Cordon'.
I know from their trailers that there is a lot of gratuitous showing of Cordon's fat stomach. Is that an 'old joke'? Do they do a lot of old jokes?

(Incidentally, the '100 year old joke' was a quite decent pun on 'hanging'.)

Haha, I loved it Laughing out loud

Some many applications to that sketch as well.

bigot against fat people
