GORDON BROWN AND ALISTAIR DARLING.
BROWN:About this new prison, Darling....
DARLING: Titan prison?
BROWN: Um, yes, what is it exactly?
DARLING:A prison large enough to hold the entire prison population of England.
BROWN: And Scotland?
DARLING:No need, Prime Minister. They have Glasgow.
BROWN:Round up all the prisoners, put them in the Titan, tow them out to the North Sea, then... one problem.
DARLING:Yes?
BROWN:Where do we get an iceberg?
Not bad at all, presentations as tad sparse!
Otherwise a fast, pasty, skit, with a good punch. Certainly stuff NR or TS would do.
Can only echo what Sootyj said, like it... and actually didn't expect the punchline.
Really tight, with a great punchline.
Yes - I read it earlier and liked it but didn't quite get the joke at first.
Space it out better Sue to make it clearer.

END OF SKETCH
Very good.
I haven't changed a word - just made it clearer.
You should certainly send it off to NewsRevue. It seems their bag.
Yeah agree with everyone above very funny sketch. Maybe add a bit about global warming meaning there aren't any iceburgs at the end (NR like their puns)
Thanks very much for all above -really appreciate it, patricularly- or even particularly- help with presentation. Must not be so lazy! Been away for Easter doing dodgems in the sleet so it was great to come back to this. Will definitely send to Trrason and News Revue- and learn to typw.
