Hello. Interested to know what the general view on this one is... Any comments greatly appreciated! Thanks.
JUSTIN: This week a newlywed couple got the fright of their lives when-
LYNDSAY
FROM THE PRODUCER'S BOX) Justin sorry to interrupt you, but we have a visitor.
JUSTIN: Can't it wait, Lyndsay? There's a rather witty knob gag coming up.
LYNDSAY:I know, Justin, but she's on quite a tight schedule and she'd really like to talk to you.
JUSTIN: If it's Fiona Bruce again just say I'm not that into her.
LYNDSAY: She's on her way over to you now.
QUEEN: It is I.
JUSTIN: (SHOCKED) Your Majesty?
QUEEN: Stand up straight when you address your Queen.
JUSTIN: Sorry. Your Majesty, I'm astonished. What brings you here?
QUEEN: It's a new thing one has started doing. One turns up unannounced at minor events and scares the bejesus out of everybody - I call it 'Unforeseen Queen'.
JUSTIN: Oh really, well this is indeed unforeseen.
QUEEN: The element of surprise is most important. So one crawled in through the air conditioning vents.
JUSTIN: I suppose that explains the silver jumpsuit.
QUEEN: Tell me, what programme are you recording here?
JUSTIN: Newsjack, ma'am. It's a topical news-based comedy programme.
QUEEN: I see. One prefers The Now Show. No-one tells a knob gag quite like Steve Punt.
JUSTIN: Perhaps if your Majesty wishes to stay and enjoy the rest of the show?
QUEEN: Sadly one must depart. I'm opening a genito-urinary ward in Coventry tomorrow morning.
JUSTIN:I expect you need to head back to the palace and get some rest then.
QUEEN:No I just need time to get into position. Thought I'd pounce from beneath the operating table during a circumcision. Now you couldn't be so kind as to give one a leg up into this ventilation shaft?
GRAMS: NEWSJACK STAB
JUSTIN: And following that sketch, I'm pleased to announce that, like Big Ben, Newsjack is to be renamed ElizabethJack, in honour of her majesty.
