In the year 2525

Currently on Radio 4 Extra there is a comedy programme called 2525.  It is one of those shows where members of the general public were asked to send in sketches set 512 years in the future (well, it was at the time)  As i sometimes have the inspiration to write comedy sketches i thought I'd take part.  Unfortunately I missed the cut off date and wasn't able to find out whether mine would make the cut or not.  So, I'd like to just share a few of them here.

This is my Dad's Army in Space, The Exploration Years sketch:

 

Star Trek had a deleted scene in it that closely resembles Dad’s Army.  Here is what remains of the script;

Captain Pike;    Whistle while you work, Khan Singh is a twerp, he’s half barmy so’s his army…;              

Khan Singh;      Your name will go on the list                         also.  What is your name human?

Spock:               Don’t tell him Pike

Captain Pike:     You stupid boy!

  

Next is my sketch from the point of view of a Robot Maid:

‘'Late again I see.  I do all that I can for my master.  Every morning he wakes up and I’m there, by his side, with a cup of tea.  When he gets home I’m there, with a cup of tea.  I always make myself presentable, looking as clean and fresh as I can.  Does he notice me?  Not a chance.  All the other maids get his fullest attention.  I wish he’d treat me like a wanton Droid.   Instead of that Pro 5000, Bitch!  But me, I don’t get a first or second glance.  Oh well, I resign myself to always being the Teasmaid and never the Maid’
