Worst idea for a sitcom Page 110

When British attempts at building a Hadron Collider go terribly wrong, the country is taken over by a herd of giant turtles.

As MPs flee in terror into the Ecuadorian Embassy, a Boy Band who last had a hit in the 1990s is asked by the general public to come to the rescue.

The key battle for survival takes place at picturesque Hadrians Wall where coincidentally all of our national treasures are performing in a charity concert.

There the offending animals are lured into a green washing machine the size of Scotland. The series ends with Bassey, Fry, John, Salmond etc abseiling down it singing "Back For Good".

Something Special Brew

Kids show for naughty little boys with red noses.

Beastenders
A pedophile and a racist are placed in an East London high rise block that overlooks a mosque and a primary school.
The lead protagonists 'Klu Klux Kevin Kennedy' and 'Filthy Fred Foster' attempt to attack a string of mixed raced kids over a six episode caper but are foiled by local residents it culminates in a hilarious scene where they are both shot dead by a Gambian hitman in a full length yellow gaberdine trench coat and red shoes. .

Are you Being Observed? A sitcom about a group of MI5 operatives who are very camp and can't help making innuendos. Mr Bumfreeze the bachelor about town who drags up at weekends. Mrs Blowthem a middle aged spy mistress always going on about bugs and ruining the joke because pussies would work better.

That's actually a pretty good title, and a good *arena* to write about, but you might have tweak the pitch a tad.

Cant think of title but Im sure it would be a very witty one.

David Smith stars in "Train in Vain"

Every week it's the same premise

David fixes a train but doesn't do it correctly

As a result the train always ends up de-railing, causing the horrific deaths of countless commuters

With hilarious consequences

Great idea...and we know this would have a great theme tune.
