Short doctor sketch

DOCTOR: Please sit down.

PATIENT: Ok Doctor, are the results in?

DOCTOR: Yes the problem is here.

PATIENT: You're kidding me!

DOCTOR: Yes, you're kidney.

PATIENT: No, I said you're kidding me.

DOCTOR: I'm not, now please be serious.

PATIENT: Ok, be serious.

DOCTOR: Well as you have asked, yes B is serious, so is A positive.

PATIENT: What about A Negative?

DOCTOR: A negative can be developed.

PATIENT: What into something serious?

DOCTOR: It depends on lighting really I think.

PATIENT: I'm sorry doctor I don't think we are seeing Eye to eye.

DOCTOR: Well I did need to talk to you about that, I noticed something wrong on your last visit. I think you need eye repositioning

PATIENT: Eye repositioning?

DOCTOR: Are you? Where to?

PATIENT: No I'm not moving anywhere.

DOCTOR: I think I can see your problem emerging now.

PATIENT: Yes? Well what is it?

DOCTOR: Appendicitis.

PATIENT: Appendicitis? But that's nothing to do with what I'm feeling

DOCTOR: Bronchitis?

PATIENT: Isn't that a throat disease?

DOCTOR: Well it's one of the two. You pick.

PATIENT: Pick? What on earth are you talking about?

DOCTOR: What I am talking about is this. This is you life!

PATIENT: Really? Like the TV show?

DOCTOR: No sorry that was a joke to lighten the mood. It turns out I picked up the wrong file. You're fine.

PATIENT: I don't know what to believe anymore, I feel like I've died a little inside.

DOCTOR: Well for that I would suggest laying off food with colourants in them.

A smart,clever well presented piece that shows you have a skill.

Absolutely mad! Loved it :D

Hi Mark,

Wow, that was fast!

It was like reading the dialogue between two total nutters which I have to confess, confused me a little.

I don't think it stands as a sketch about a mad bloke going to see a normal doc or the other way round. Maybe that wasn't the idea, anyhow. As a piece of insanity then it's brilliantly bonkers.

Proper out there stuff that you'd love or hate. It's not dark or has a atom of sense to it but is totally, laughably crazy!

Kinda reminds me of early Vic Reeves/Bob Mortimer stuff which took the nation by storm with its madness.

Run with the concept and you may wind up a millionaire!!

Thanks guys!

Yeah it's a bit out there. That's good for me though :)

Here's hoping those millions roll in. Haha.

Reads like a Tommy Cooper sketch.
Which can't be a bad thing.

Thanks for the feedback guys. :)
