# Cheers
I got shortlisted for the show out of about 2500 people so I'm going to be pissed off if I don't get at least one sketch on the air!

EDIT: focus group time. Is this funny as a one liner gag for radio?

VOX POP:

"Of course, I use a Blackberry and I have an Apple computer at home but what I really want to know is whether or not they count towards my 5 portions of fruit per day?"

# I'll be listening
Is it any good, without your input I mean?

# I've only heard the pilot so far
and yes, I thought it was funny. It's a sketch show rather than a sitcom and I've definitely heard a lot worse.

There was an excellent one in the pilot about a bloke talking about when he cut open an aubergine and noticed the seeds inside it spelt out the name of the prophet Mohammed:

"That's when I realised that I had a blasphemous aubergine."

Cracking good line!



EDIT: or were you suggesting that without my input it might be good?

# Really hate aubergines
And you were right before the paranoia kicked in!

# They never read as well as they sound
You have to imagine (for instance) Marcus Brigstocke doing it in his upper class twit style voice or something.

Or an easier one to hear in your head might be a train announcement:

*bong*

"Southern Trains have a normal service operating on all routes this morning. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause."
