Y'know, we should submit an idea to a prod co to produce a series of short films based on the premises in this thread. Could go out under the banner 'Rejected TV pilots' or something like that. You could have 5-6 an episode and some link man to tie it all together as long as it's NOT Angus Deayton.

Ampersand In Your Face
Bullied by the big stoopids in his youth, a young Aaron Brown turns to punctuation to get his own back. Misguided prequel to the limited success trilogy.

Good, but what about Orson Welles 'The Magnificent Ampersands'.

 

Sexual Predator

Arnie versus a dodgy guy from his office, who slips Rhohypnol in his drink to take advantage of him at the office Xmas party.


The Germinator

A robot gardener is sent to the past, to ruin Alan Titchmarsh's sunken garden.

Got me too. Such an amusing word. Moreso to the eye than the ear.

Terry and the Brunes

Terry was just like any other 1970s office worker, and husband. Except he was married to an idiosyncratic Glasgow comic strip about a family. This week Terry's boss visits for dinner (again, has the man been evicted), and when the loos broken, wee's in Oor Wullie's bucket.

I'm worried I got every one of the geeky references in that last post.
