Int. Auction Room

Camera shot shows an auctioneer at his table on a stand.

Auctioneer: Going once. Going twice. (KNOCKS HAMMER) Sold!

Camera pulls out to reveal auctioneer 2 who is on a higher stand than the first auctioneer.

Auctioneer 2: So, as you can see, a lovely example of an auctioneer. Who'll start me at fifty pounds?

I like it! We should collaborate on the pun-ishment show. Visual gags, and rotten puns in bite sized portions.

Maybe we see an endless line of auctioneers selling each other into infinity?
 
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

that made me laugh out loud.

I'm a much bigger fan of daft visual sketches than the political stuff that's usually on here.

The surreal ones are the best. I liked it.

I liked it a lot. Good take. Nice and short. Nothing to add.
