Hot Cross Buns sketch

Sketch begins with two bakers talking.

Bill: So Tim are you sure you've got that? I want all the buns you make today to be pulled out of the oven piping hot, kept at a constantly hot temperature for the rest of the day and Make 'X' shapes on the top of every single bun is that clear?

Tim: Sure is boss. But why?

Bill: Oh, we're just trying out a new type of bun to see how it gets on. Ok then, I'll be back later to see how you've got on.

Cuts to some time later and Bill has returned to inspect the buns.

Tim: I'm all finished boss, hope you like the buns. They took me ages.

Bill: Lets have a look then...Tim! You've done this all wrong!

Tim: Why what have I done?

Bill: You see what you've done here, these aren't X's are they? These are crosses that you've drawn here. I asked for X's Tim.

Tim: Oh yeah. Oh sorry mate, I must've got confused, oh god I'm really sorry. It's just really hard to manouveur in here with all the heat from the incredibly hot buns. I'ms o sorry. Oh god that is pretty bad actually.

Bill: Don't worry about it now Tim, what's done is done. The only thing is I just don't think there's a market for hot, crossed buns. I mean, I dont know a single soul who would want to buy hot , cross , buns.

Tim: Yeah thats a shame because I know loads of people who would want to buy Hot X buns.

Bill: Yeah exactly. Well we'll just have to try and move them off the shelfs anyway I suppose. Hopefully they'll sell just as good as those other ones you cocked up last year Tim.

Tim: What ones? Oh the Cold cakes! Yeah we sold loads of them didn't we? Loads and Loads.

Bill: Yeah except they we'rent cold cakes were they? Because you coked them up and they went on the shelves as hot cakes. And well I think they sold really well, really well, in fact I dont think any cake has ever sold so well as those cold cakes you cocked up which actually came out as hot cakes.

Tim: Yeah.
