SKETCH COMP 11.8-18.8

Right - start of another competition which I've cut and pasted again.

This week's winner is... JUDE again! Jurassic Park!

And with the new points system you win 10 big shiny points!

Votes - Points - Name
03 - 10 - Jude
02 - 5 - Timothy Marshal-Nichols
02 - 05 - Leevil
01 - 01 - Batman
01 - 01 - Steven

Last week I asked both Frankie and jude to PM a new subject so I could toss for it (any excuse). While I love to tire my limbs tossing, I now reckon that was pretty unfair so this week you can have both topics and select the one that tickles your fancy. Only one each mind!

So this weeks topic is... the DHSS (Frankie) or WOODS (Jude).

Rules:
One entry per person.
Can be a sketch, joke, lyric or anything along those lines.
Please try and only post your entry and no other posts.
You can edit your entry as much as you want, up until the closing time.

Competition Closes: Tuesday 18 September

Good luck!

Two deers in the woods during hunting season

Deer 1 : Frank... i'm scared.

Deer 2: It's okay George...you remember the plan?

Deer 1: (scared) Frank...they're here.

The Hunters approach with guns on show ready for action.

Hunter 1: (pointing ahead squinting) There's a pair of...well i don't know...they look quite big...but they're trying to climb trees and eating acorns.

SCOUTMASTER: So, lads, how would I find you deep in the woods?

SCOUT 1: Our calls?

The scouts look concerned, and there is the distant cry of wolves. The scoutmaster genially whistles.

INT. DHSS OFFICE – DAY

A SCRUFFY MAN COVERED IN TATTOOS SITS OPPOSITE A WOMAN IN A SUIT.

WOMAN: So Mr Phillips, we’re here today to try and discover your positive attributes, and thus hopefully find a suitable job for you. You’ve been out of work for... (refers to notes) ...five years now? That’s an awfully long time - what have you been up to?

MR PHILLIPS: Well, y’know... this and that.

WOMAN: I’m sorry, you’re going to have to be a bit more specific... have you been involved in any charity work in that period, for example?

MR PHILLIPS: Charity? What, helpin’ people and that?

WOMAN: Yes.

MR PHILLIPS: Yeah, I help people all the time... my mate Carlton had tons of trouble gettin’ hold of some ganja for his son’s 18th birthday bash, and I got him an henry of pukka Sensee, no probs.

THE DHSS WOMAN LOOKS STERNLY AT HIM.

WOMAN: Unpaid charity work?

MR PHILLIPS: Ah... well, I only took a nip of it for me trouble, like.

WOMAN: (reading out what she’s writing down) ‘Good at under-cutting.’ (to Mr Phillips) Didn’t he notice that his deal was a bit short?

MR PHILLIPS: Yeah, but I told him that the geezer I get it from has hookey scales, like.

WOMAN: (continues writing) ‘Competent liar.’ (to Mr Phillips) Any hobbies or interests, Mr Phillips?

MR PHILLIPS: Well, I’m quite athletic in the bedroom, if you know what I mean.

HE WINKS LECHINGLY AT HER.

WOMAN: Is that a hobby you pursue with Mrs Phillips?

MR PHILLIPS: I’m not bothered... I’ll shag anyone really.

WOMAN: (writing) ‘Enjoys screwing people’.

SHE PUTS HER PEN AND PAPER DOWN.

WOMAN: (CONT’D) Well Mr Phillips, I know the perfect job for you... Chancellor of the Exchequer. We’ll give you a ring when the next vacancy arises.

MR PHILLIPS: No way! I’m not working with that Brown Fella - he’s a right c**t!

A woman is behind a desk at the DHSS talking to a customer, there are several other customers waiting in chairs near by.

A guy comes in, dressed in black, and tuts at the length of the queue. He has a big hold all with him. He takes out a gun and shoots the first two people immediately in the queue, he strangles the next with a rope, takes out a blade and plunges it into the belly of a third and then, suffocates another with a plastic bag.

The guy who is currently talking to the DHSS staff member stands up:

Unemployed bloke: “ Well thanks for all your help”

Staff member: “That’s my pleasure Mr Johnson, see you next week”

At this point the man in black plunges a samurai sword through this guy’s stomach from his back and pushes the guy to the floor.

Staff member (Presses bell): “Next please”

Guy in black: “That’ll be me”

Staff member: “Take a seat....So how can I help you?”

Guy in black: “I’m looking for work”

Staff member: “What type of work?, What’s your skill set?”

Guy in black: “Well I’ve mainly worked in contracting”

Staff member: “We’ve got a job for a cleaner in Staines”

Guy in black: “A cleaner? Yeah that’s the sort of thing I’m looking for”

Staff member: “They say they are looking for someone who can work antisocial hours and can provide their own equipment. Does that sound of any interest to you?”

Guy in black: “ Yeah I’ll take it “

Staff member: “ Ok great. (HANDS OVER PAPERS) You can start tomorrow “.

Guy in black: “Thanks”

GUY IN BLACK WALKS TOWARDS THE DOOR

Staff member: “Close the door on your way out won’t you”

Guy in black: “Sure thing”

PULLS THE PIN OUT OF A GRENADE AND LOBS IT OVER HIS SHOULDER ON THE WAY OUT OF THE DOOR, WHICH HE THEN CLOSES CAREFULLY.

Okay I'm closing the comp and opening the voting... Till Friday night! Thanks for participating and for not taking the proverbial pee outa my inability to count months.
