- As soon as I finished this sketch, I felt I had something decent, at least on paper, but I have to say that Mel & Griff did a truly fantastic job of really bringing it to life. It's definitely one of my all time favourites.
If you enjoyed my work/this sketch, please check out my novels: STANLEY McCLOUD MUST DIE! or BARNACLE BRAT (Winner of Indie Novel of the Year 2016) *Please note they are both dark comedies intended for grown-ups only. You can find the first 5 chapters of each novel here: www.adrianbaldw... (Look for the big button at the bottom of the book's page)
If you like what you see - i.e. if they make you laugh - you can find them on Amazon here: www.amazon.com... (or for the UK: www.amazon.co.... )
Cheers, AB.
The way Griff says 'don't do that!'.
Do what? ;)
One of my absolute favourite sketches
Cheers, Carl :) So glad you enjoyed it! :D If you'd like, you can follow my more recent work here: facebook.com/AdrianBaldwinAuthor
Thank you so much for you kind comments. Writers tend to be plagued by doubts about their work (I always am, anyway) so it's great to know at least some people enjoy the results. I once worked on lots of different TV comedy/light-entertainment shows, then moved on to screenplays, and now I'm hoping my first novel, once it's finished, will also find an appreciative audience. So thanks again :-) You made my day!
Thanks for your kind comments, guys. It's been a while since I wrote the sketch but I'm glad to see that people are still enjoying it. (At least, some are, I see one person felt moved to click 'dislike' lol - oh well) BTW if anyone would like a PDF of the script just drop me a line at rainoutside@hotmail.com - it contains the lines of dialogue and all the action/direction sequences. Those who do like the sketch may enjoy reading it. I hope so, anyway. Cheers :-D
I like the way that despite their disguises, you can still tell instantly it's Mel and Griff ( Which is of course the whole point).
@thealextwilight101 Thanks for that thealextwilight101 - i had no idea they had played the sketch in the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth, Cornwall. Oddly enough, I had originally thought of setting it in a Lighthouse off the coast of Cornwall (I used to have my childhood holidays in Cornwall) but later decided that Scottish accents might work better for the sketch (and be a bit easier for Mel And Griff) - but who knows, maybe it would have worked just as well with Cornish accents ...
Oh this is classic stuff right here.
As a Welshman Griff nails the Scottish accent perfectly 😂
Agreed :)
I love this one, so funny. And their accent :-)
Thank you, Ploni :)
Haha!! It's the best. "...or why don't you stick up your hooter?" 😄
Yep, we've just got back from a trip to the Maritime Museum too. I was watching the sketch with headphones on and apparently smiling and giggling like an idiot while my family looked on...when I called out to my partner to come and listen I did it in an absurdly loud voice (they tell me) as I still had the headphones on!
I saw that in the museum several years ago and I was the same lmao
I’ve thought about this skit a lot but only just thought to search it.
Best skit ever!
This was magnificent.
Should pale death with treble dread
make the ocean caves our bed,
God who hear'st the surges roll,
deign to save the suppliant soul.
I had to come find this sketch after watching 'The Lighthouse' too! Haha!
HAAAARK!
Gonnie no dae that?
2:21 LOL
Father Christmas vs Bambi 😂
this is gold :)
Thank you!
