NJ: Peter Andre

MILES:
As a fully fledged card-carrying scab-torturing member of the interviewers union, it pains me to criticise a fellow comrade, but Kay Burley is something of a bad apple. Nice pips though. I'm now joined by Peter Andre to show him that we're not all callous bullies.

PETER:
Hi Miles.

MILES:
Before we begin, I want you to know that it's OK for a man to cry. Not me though, I'm a testosterone-producing machine.

PETER:
I'm not embarrassed Miles. (BREAKING UP) I just love my kids so much.

MILES:
Well don't worry; I won't be bringing up anything that will set you off. Tell me about your new album.

PETER:
It's called Unconditional; it's an album full of love songs. It reminds me of my kids and how much I love them. (STARTS CRYING)

MILES:
Are there any covers?

PETER:(STILL CRYING)
Yes, there's five cover versions.

MILES:
No, covers for the floor, it's like the Thames in here.

Hmm, bit of a weak ending joke. It feels too short, without any real development of the idea of Andre being a wet blanket and it doesn't feel particularly 'Newsjack' either. The opening was ok with Miles' hint at Burley's pips though.

:)

Cheers Giggle-o

Yeah, agree with Giggle-o here. Needs to be longer and explore/play with the joke a bit more.
