It's because his old avatar looked a bit like Peter Sutcliffe, innit?
Anyone who visited his old website should know his surname!

Not until he shaves.

I look NOTHING like him, I can assure.
I look more like a young Matthew Corbett. Which is worse? I don't know.

I almost feel sorry for the Yorkshire Ripper in that every single prisoner in Britain seems intent on blinding him. Sure, he's a nasty piece of work, but there are plenty of other prisoners in need of a good blinding.

As long as you don't try shoving your hand up sootyj's bum. He won't like it.
Hope you all liked the two sketches. All that palaver for 2 minutes, eh?
A bit of dull chat about the sketches, regarding changes etc. I won't put up the whole script - I might get sued.
Bad News Policemen.
------------
EXT. A SUBURBAN HOUSE - DAY
Two POLICEMEN are stood at the doorstep. One of them rings the doorbell.
----------
Simple actions, not just because I'm lazy.
-------------
POLICEMAN 1:
Mrs. Jones?
---------------
Changed to 'Mrs Harries' - an in-joke for exec producer Andy Harries who apparently really liked the sketch. See how original I am with 'Jones'. Yes, comedy genius.
--------------
POLICEMAN 2:
Found twenty quid on the floor. Twenty pounds! The jammy git!
---------------
That got cut. I can see why.
Rest of the sketch is as went out. Relatively untouched. Though the end singing bit wasn't my idea.
Bad News Doctors.
The patient was written as Mrs, but they gave it to the lad instead.
--------------
DOCTOR 1:
I know, I know. I'll do the talking, don't worry.
DOCTOR 1 talks into his intercom.
DOCTOR 1: (CONT'D)
Susan, could you send in our next patient, please?
------------------
Why, oh why did I include pointless exposition in a sketch?! No wonder they cut it!!
They cut some bits I thought were brilliant about how the patient was really charming and good at drawing.
The super powers and gold bit were mine, but the bit about 'everything in this room is yours' wasn't. I'm sure I wrote something like that, but can't find it in my original scripts, so I don't think I did.
---------------------
DOCTOR 1:
Madam, you urgently need to see . . .
DOCTOR 2:
An insurance broker - you're off the pricing scale! Go! Go!!
-----------------------
Nice ending, but it got cut and changed to the 'Yes!' 'No!' back and forth bit.
Really happy with how they turned out, bargain for 385 quid I think.
They were ace, and delivered brilliantly.
Yay!
Nice one, Seefacts. Well, nice two.
Congratulations.
£385 is nice work!
I know you did explain ages ago about the pricing, but could you go through it again? Was it paid by the minute etc?

140 quid a minute, pro rata.
Cool! That's more than the beeb pay isn't it? I heard they were £110 per minute.

That I don't know.
I'd have thought the Beeb would pay more?
