Honeymooners

REPORTER:Mr Clegg, what's your reaction to the WikiLeaks claim that Mr Cameron is fed up with you leaving the toilet seat up, leaving the lid off of the toothpaste, and that you leave your soiled pants lying around.

CLEGG:It's outrageous that a website can get away with publishing such...home-wrecking claims. This is a time when we need to be united. I mean, I don't go around telling everyone about David's toenail clippings in the bath tub.

REPORTER:Really? In the bath tub?

CLEGG:Yeah. If I don't rinse it out before I have a bath, my arse ends up looking like Gillian McKieth.

REPORTER:What else does he do?

CLEGG:Well, he whistles constantly. He can't go for a piss without piping out 'Land of Hope and Glory'. And he doesn't even take the dishes out of the sink first.

REPORTER:Mr Clegg, is the honeymoon period over?

CLEGGh no. As a matter of fact Dave only told me yesterday that he has paid for us to go on a mini-cab tour of Cape Town next week.

I think the punchline is excelent but maybe fewer gags enroute?

The Jillian McKeith line breaks character a bit to much....

Thank you. I think you're right actually, I haven't read it properly since I wrote it a few days ago.

I can't seem to get my head around the idea of the quickie!

Oh no good sketch

it's just better in my view to keep Nick in character as a posh boy

This is great Joe Easily Newsjack standard (above it imo).

Thanks guys, I'm chuffed about that. I've sent stuff in to a couple of series of Newsjack, and Watson's Windup - nothing! But I do think my sketch writing has come on a lot so I'll keep trying. I've submitted stuff to NewsRevue (who said they are doing their end-of-year show at the moment), and Treason Show from whom I have heard nothing at all.

I'll be posting some more as I need feedback - it's so hard to tell the difference between what I think is funny and what other people think is funny!

Thanks.

NR and Treason don't really reply till they're going to use your stuff.

Plug on your stuff is most definitely good enough; brief and lots of ggags.

As for NR they change directors/casts every 6 weeks. So maybe in the next run the new guy will like your stuff.

Also means they only pick stuff up at the beginning of the run.

Good punch, like it

Funny
But as SootyJ says maybe a tad crowded.
