INT. PUB - EVENING

TWO FRIENDS ARE SITTING AT A TABLE, DRINKING PINTS OF LAGER. THERE ARE NUMEROUS EMPTY GLASSES.

LEE:
Next subject: the perfect woman. I take it large breasts are a given?

CARL:
Not for me. I hate to see these porn-star wannabes carrying small silicone mines on their chest; anything more than a handful is an outrageous waste.

LEE:
No way. If the bitch ain't wearing glasses to protect her eyes from her nipples then it's a 'no' from me. Right, let's move on to the arse; as I said to the barmaid last night.

CARL:
I'm something of a connoisseur of the female rear, and you can't beat a Kylie.

LEE:
Get the f**k out of here with that skinny-arsed skank. You've got to have a proper butt; I'm talking about a J-Lo.

CARL:
Are you nuts? If I want a bird with a fat arse I'll just go home.

LEE:
You're clearly a backside philistine. Let's move on to morals, I take it your perfect bint is a right goer: the type of tart who just has to see a gear stick to end up wetter than a Pakistani summer?

CARL:
No chance. A bird is like a motor, you don't want your shiny new model having 50,000 miles on the clock.

LEE:
I suppose a bint is like a car. When you put your foot down they swallow the juice. Let's move on; skin colour?

CARL:
You can't beat a nice Portuguese bird; they're a delightful shade of orange.

LEE:
So are half the bints in Essex, they're still f**king disgusting. You can't beat a nice Oriental; I've seen what they can do with a ping pong ball.

CARL:
Yeah, they're good at table tennis.

LEE:
F**k off. What about personality? We're looking for a nice kind-hearted bint, right?

CARL:
You've got to be winding me up. Our Tina's got a heart of gold; you can't take the bitch into town for a beer without her chatting to some homeless c**t for about 45 minutes. It's a nause.

LEE:
F**king hell, you're hard to please. You've got to be happy with blonde hair and blue eyes though?

CARL:
What? Blondes might as well come with an official certificate of retardation; you can't beat a nice red-head with green eyes.

LEE:
You've got to be shitting me? Your perfect partner's got a small arse, a flat-chest and f**king red-hair? It sounds like you want to bang a small ginger boy.

CARL:
You can talk; blonde hair and blue eyes is it Adolf?

LEE:
F**k this; we're never going to agree on anything. What about the accent?

CARL:
I thought we were talking about the perfect woman? She's got to be a mute.

A TEAR ROLLS DOWN LEE'S EYES.

LEE:
She sounds f**king great.

Charley's sketch was sublime. A big thumbs up (and a vote) from me.

a blank screen

voice over: first there was mamma mia (the word mamma mia appears on screen) then there was marmaduke (the word marmaduke appears onscreen) now we have MARMALADE!!! (a jar of marmalade appears on screen) in a world of juice he was a spread

orange 1: when I grow up I want to be marmalade

orange 2: no you can't this family has a tradition of juice making and you need to continue this tradition

voice over: one orange wanted to endure the criticism and SPREAD the love.

orange 1: just face it mum ive not got the juice in me

orange 2: you can get transfusions for that now.

voice over: follow the story of one oranges plight to be eaten at breakfast in slumdog marmalade coming soon ... ish

Some lovely stuff as usual, guys. I'm going to have to go for OTTERFOX by a shorthead from Nigel

Really, really tough this week. Simplicity wins it for me so I'm going for Craig H.

Special mention for samcheese who arrived too late.

oops too late

I think Sunny boy wins it (i.e. Steve). It seems a simple enough sketch for me.

So many good entries again, loved Craig, Bushbaby, Charley, Kasm, Nigel but it's Gerry who's popping my cherry this week.

Mr Monkhouse this time.

Gerry for me too. :D

I had to give them a reread as they were all good.
Gerry get's my vote as well.

Afinkawan edges out Eggie and Angie.

Steve, Borassic Park a pun Marc P. would have been proud of - and you can take that however you like!
