Quick sketch

INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY

Ron sits in his armchair flicking through the Argos Catalogue. The phone by his side rings, he answers it.

RON: Hello?

CALLER: Would you like some assistance Sir?

RON: No thanks, I'm just browsing.

END

Anyone else think it's worth stretching it out with the usual banter that goes on with those annoying shop assistance?

No, mate. That's neat just as it for me! Laughing out loud

Laughing out loud

Nice. No need for banter.

Clear, to the point, that's a good quickie.

Very good. Just enough. Maybe you could pad out the looking through the catalogue to start with though.

Cheers y'all.

Dude, it's good, but I should tell you that the exact same thing has been done a few years back, by Steve Penk on Capital FM. He called up the QVC channel.

That doesn't sound the exact same thing at all.

Agree with you Dave :O . Everything's been done in some form or another.
Bottom line is whether or not anyone's interested in paying you for it and I'd say, 'yep, good chance'.

Excellent. Not a huge fan of "quickies" but this is good. Nice one.

Bo.

We're all prostitutes!

Funny.

A scary vision of the future this - brochures with microchips, customer service reps with telepathic powers or maybe i'm reading too much into it.

Anyway, it was a good one.
