APPEAL

GRAMS: “THIS WOMANS WORK” BY KATE BUSH

ANNOUNCER:(V/O) Could you spend day after day in cold, cramped

conditions? Not knowing where or when your next meal

might be? Shunned by society, possibly even abused.

We discovered these two abandoned in an old horsebox by a

busy road.

F/X: TRAFFIC NOISES

WPC:(OFF) Will you piss off!

We’re s’posed to be incog-bloody-nito!

ANNOUNCER:(V/O) Suffering the effects of poor diet and no exercise.

WPC:(OFF) I’m big boned, ask my mam!

ANNOUNCER:(V/O) If you think you have what it takes to be a sneaky

little mare - like these two, we want to hear from you.

Call North Wales Constabulary, Traffic Division, today.

I didn't get it.

Was supposed to be a skit about the North Wales traffic police. They've taken to hiding in horse boxes by the side of the road to catch people. They've made a pile of money in fines but accidents have gone up by a third. Headed by the so called "Mad Mullah of the Traffic Taliban"

obviously doesn't work at all, never mind :D

Ah now that's a good idea. But picking on the police women as fat slags, confuses the joke.

Maybe a rubbish pun, I've found the arse wheres the rest of the horse?

Was a fat man! (at least I'm pretty sure Daffyd's male)

But yeah, like the idea of a horses arse Laughing out loud

That's the use of This Women's Work, automatically makes me think of women put upon (it's comedic shorthand, like madonna dance music, always means gay guys).

Yes,I can now see that confuses it more. I just think of it as the music to feel sorry for something....abandoned kids and drowned pups etc.

Should be changed to women, should be binned really...

It's got great potential and there's loads of police music (maybe jsut 70s wah wah cop music)
