Sex and the fugitive

THE WOMEN FROM SEX AND THE CITY ARE SITTING AROUND CHATTING CARRIE HAS HER FACE HIDDEN BY AN NEWSPAPER

MIRANDA

So this is the film, good isn't it.

CHARLOTTE

So what do we do now?

MIRANDA

I think we talk about big willies, then we talk about sex, then we get married, then divorced, then we talk about shoes.

CARRIE

Big willies were in fashion in New York again, as were Mahnilo Blahnicks.

CHARLOTTE

Can you stop doing that Carrie. Remind is this actually a comedy?

SAMANTHA

Is it time for my oatmeal and bottox yet? I was in Manequin.

CHARLOTTE

Poor old Samantha, how old are you?

SAMANTHA

Old enough to give you a clip around the ear you young whipper snapper.

MIRANDA

If you're so old why are you playing the remorseless sex beast?

SAMANTHA

Oh ever since I had my downstairs department removed, I haven't got any feeling down there. They've got a boom operator in their right now.

CARRIE

Samantha, was a successful magazine editor, who loved sex, and taking her clothes off, and talking about it. For 6 series, it never, ever got dull.

CHARLOTTE

So big willies, chocolate, or shopping?

CARRIE DROPS HER NEWSPAPER SHE IS IN FACT OSAMA BIN LADEN, WITH BEARD.

CARRIE

Oh that's f**king it, I can't take this any more. I'm Osama Bin Laden I've been hiding out in Sex and The City for almost 10 years, and you are driving me bloody nuts. Big willies, Mahnilo Blahnicks, hats, hats for big willies. Hiding on the world's most superficial and mindless TV show is driving me mad.

CHARLOTTE

Well I'm calling the Police.

CARRIE

To collect the reward for capturing the word's most infamous terrorist.

CHARLOTTE

No that facial hair is a disgrace, haven't you head of electrolysis?

N.b. this is a very rough draft, of what i suspect is a terrible idea.

I like the concept a lot. Not sure the dialogue works for me as it is, but as you mentioned, its a rough draft. I'd prefer something a bit more subtle maybe. But again, as you've said before you write for some of the less subtle shows around. Either way, the concept is very funny.

The first gag - that SITC is rubbish is not done with any orignality. Sam likes sex but is 40+ and carrie likes shoes...we know, thats why people liked it! (And wouldnt "i was in porkys" be a more approriate line from Sam in this context?)

The second gag that carrie is OBL....just dont find that funny.

sootyj,

agree with M Lewis with virtually all he said however the one thing that did make me titter was the "I was in Manequin" reference. Very me and makes me believe that we might have something in common re humour after all.
