The Knights of the round table.

KING ARTHUR IS ADDRESSING HIS KNIGHTS AROUND THE TABLE.

KING ARTHUR:
I declare that we shall henceforth be known as the Knights of the round table .

EVERYONE CHEERS AND RAISES THEIR GLASSES

ALL:
The Knights of the round table - Hoy!

SIR YAPSALOT:
May I say a few words please My Liege, I think that what you're doing is really splendid. All of us chums, in a cute little gang, we really don't do enough together these days. And a round table! What an absolutely super duper idea, everyone equal distance away, The food & drink is all easy to reach. It's just sometimes really nice to be with your bestest pals, in your favourite castle around a nice table having a bit of a natter.

CAPTION: LATER THAT DAY.

KING ARTHUR:
I Declare That we shall henceforth be known as the Knights of the Q Shaped table.

EVERYONE CHEERS AND WE REVEAL A Q SHAPED TABLE WITH SIR YAPSALOT ALONE SITTING AT THE END OF A RATHER LONG TAIL SECTION.

SIR YAPSALOT
Hello, Chaps? I can't hear what you're all saying, can I swap with anyone? Helllooo!

I don't know if Sir Yapsalot is annoying enough for it to really work. Maybe a fade out while he's talking, then a fade in and he's still talking and everyone looks bored.

Funny enough idea I thought though, not laugh out loud hilarious but made me smile.

Oh how I loved this visual. It's like a good Simpsons gag. Yes, lovely, lovely stuff. Don makes a good point though. Make him a bit more annoying. Bit only a teeny.

I like this. You can make Sir Yaps as annoying as possible, it'll just get funnier.

Yes this one's great, I agree it needs the fade out/bored looking Knights to sell it though.

I love the concept, made me do a big smile- can see this being very funny on a screen.

Nice one Steve. Sir Yapsalot could be even be a woman?
