I submitted 15 sketches to a new ITV show that's coming on in May. As I happened to be in town on Saturday, I decided to try one of them out.

It's set in a mobile phone store, so I went into the link, and spoke to the lad behind the counter:

Me: Hi, am I right in thinking that I need a tri-band phone if I want to use it in the USA?

Lad: (Consults co-worker) Yeah, that's right.

Me: And could I use it in Asia, and Europe?

Co-worker: Asia, yes, Europe... yes.

Me: What about the moon?

Co-worker: No.

Me: Anywhere in space?

Co-worker: No

Me: Okay, thanks.

------------

Not quite the reaction I was hoping for, I wanted more confusion.

BBC comedy can't even relate to funny.

I'd submit that one to the BBC Meka, it's their kind of comedy.

I don't know why but just people dancing to Charles and Eddie, dressed up as Charles and Eddie is funny. If you just had 5 minutes of that, I'd be laughing. much.

Don't ask.

See, there are three reasons why I like this sketch so much, and those same reasons are exactly why it'll never be made:

1) Not many people remember Charles and Eddie, especially not what they actually looked like.

2) No place would ever have a 'Charles and Eddie' night, as they only had that one hit.

3) When was the last time you heard anyone mention Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards.

Don't worry though, I'll share all of my sketches with you eventually...

Well I liked that one.

Not too sure why though, I feel like Joey from friends, at Emma's birthday party...
