New Labour's Lost

GRAMS:
“EPIC MOVIE” MUSIC

V/O:
(PORTENTOUS AMERICAN ACCENT) Coming Spring 2008 – Shakespeare’s New Labour’s Lost. Marvel as mad King Blair rages at the loss of his throne.

BLAIR:
Ingratitude, thy name is Gordon.

V/O:
Shudder as Lord “Pressa” Macbeth fails to quell the mighty Macdonalds.

PRESCOTT:
Is this a burger I see before me? Yeees!

FX:
SOUND OF VOMITING

V/O:
And weep as Gordon, Prince of Denmark, is diagnosed terminally indecisive.

BROWN:
Ten p or not ten p, that is the question.

V/O:
New Labour’s Lost. Coming soon. To a constituency near you.

Now that's more like.

And a marvelously awful pun in the final line. You risk some one pinching that.

You know if you haven't sent it, or even if you have.

I'd send that final line as a 1-2 line skit to NR, or TS.

The rest is good, but a real shorty could do well.

Oh good stuff, doing better than me currently.

I don't think so. But yeah, this was one of those rarities that both Newsrevue and Treason took. That's why I felt safe to post it! Tilt wouldn't touch it though.

Pah!

NR and TS high praise indeed.
