Jonathan Woss Interviews Two Short Planks
By Mr_E_Writer
16 May 2008

With a nod of gratitude to a box of rocks.






.

Woss: Good evening. On tonights show it gives me gwate pweasure to intwoduce
           the world fwamous doublewact 'The Two Shorwt Pwanks'.

Plank 1: Hello, Jonathan. It is a pleasure to be here.

Plank 2: Yes indeed, an honour.

Woss: Sow, have you walways bween...
 
Plank 1: Before we get started, can I just say that I object quite strongly to being
             referrred to as short. I'm 6'3" for Chris Tarrant's sake.

Plank 2: Whilst I pride myself on my eloquence. I've never been short with anyone.


Woss: Wight! Sow, have you walways bween a dwuble wact?

Plank 2: Yes.

Woss: That woz shorwt!!

Plank 2: Succinct, possibly. But short? I think not.

Woss: Returnin' to my qwestion, have you walways been a dwuble wact.

Plank 1: Yes. We grew up together in the same forest and wouldn't dream of going
             solo.

Woss: What abowt yaw pwans for the fwuture. Even pwanks at the wewy top of
           their game have to consider the pwossibility of the bwubble bursting.

Plank 2: Oh, I've always had a dream of retiring back to the country and raising a
             box of matches.
Plank 1: My wife likes the idea of twins. Either matching chair legs or a nest of
             tables.

Woss: Well that's all wewy interwesting, but it wouldn't be the Woss show withowt
          a few sexuwall winnuwendows. So, 'Two Short Planks', two short planks made
          of wood. You're aware that a woody is a slang term fwor an ewection!

Plank 1: That is a plankist remark and I object to it, vehemently.

Woss: It's my show an if you don't like it you can..

Plank 2: Now who's being short?

Woss: OH PWISS WOFF.

Plank 1: And they have the nerve to call us thick!!!

The thought that someone would interview an inanimate object may be an indication of some sort of mental disorder. ;)  
Brilliant!!!

and "twins. Either matching chair legs or a nest of tables" made me laugh out loud. I thought this was funnier than the box of rocks, myself :)

You want decking, mate. Won't go against the grain - certainly a big improvement, but needs polishing. (Ma koot is on, an' am oot the door).

Box of rocks/two short planks - sorry - neither does it for for me. Humour is a funny thing (ha ha) though. I can't stand Kathryn Taite ( the foul mouthed granny was funny the first time) but everyone else seems to think she's hilarious. 
 
Horses for courses.

It raised a smile. I particularly like the the take off of Wossie as I really can't stand him. I thought the comment about the innuendoes was spot on. That is all he seems to want to do.  
I didn't have problem with the concept. I remember on Spitting Image when Wogan interviewed Samantha Fox's breasts. If you are going for the surreal you need to go really OTT,I think, but yours had it's moments and was worth a giggle 
cheers
