Naked

Naked


	Stephen and Hugh are in a black limbo area. Hugh is 
	on a monitor, Stephen is really there.

Stephen		I'm afraid that we've now got to ask you to
		do some work, and help us a bit, ladies and
		gentlemen. Use your imagination, as it were.

Hugh		That's right. For the purposes of this next sketch,
		ladies and gentlemen, we want you all to imagine
		that we're both naked.

Stephen		Yes. I'm sorry to have to ask this of you. Speaking
		for ourselves, Hugh and I really wanted to go the
		whole way, and actually be naked for this one but,
		unfortunately, we ran out of money.

Hugh		That's right. The budget simply wouldn't stretch
		that far, I'm afraid. Never mind.

Stephen		Now to help you build up the picture in your
		minds, I should tell you that the sketch is set in a
		church.

Hugh		That's right. Stephen will be playing a Bishop.

Stephen		And Hugh will be playing the organ.

Hugh		The organist.

Stephen		What?

Hugh		I'll be playing the organist.

Stephen		The organist. Yes. But you'll be playing the organ
		as well?

Hugh		No. No. That's the whole point. I play an organist
		who can't play the organ.

Stephen		Oh God I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Of course. Have I
		ruined it?

Hugh		Yes, frankly.

Stephen		I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen.

Hugh		You'd better all stop imagining that we're naked.

Stephen		Yes stop. Hold it. It's all my fault. I'm sorry.
		Damn.


VOX POP
Stephen		A men enters a bar. It was an
		iron bar. No, goes into a bar.
		Walks into a bar, that's it. A
		man walks into a pub, it was an
		iron pub. Henry Cooper used
		to do that one. Tommy. Tommy
		Bar used to walk into that one.
		Oh no, that can't be right.
