NewsRevue again! Page 31

Sootyj's Prescott sketch is in - good, I liked that one.

Hooray albeit I seem to be restricted to 2 a week this run.

Wild Sooty's can't be broken!

Well done with the Prescott one, was good.
Least my rule of 3 one must've gone down OK but was hoping the Fawlty tribute might have crept in. But then maybe joking about Ross/Brand's prank's a risky proposition

I only submitted one sketch this week. It was:

Johnathan Ross auditioning for Dr Who, (coz he needs to be on TV!) wanting the late night Friday Night BBC1 slot, and suggesting ideas for the show like "Doctor Who The Hell Left That Message On My Answerphone" and "Friday Night With Johnathan Davros."

Sadly it didn't make it. ;)

There you go.
I didn't submit anything this week, but my Orville song recurred again. :)

Hope everyone else got something in.
