A sort of treble entendre. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118840 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 12:43:45 +0000 Rootin Tootin 118840@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>...said the actress to the ... oh, hold on. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118812 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 11:25:08 +0000 Vertically Challenged Giant 118812@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>You could be right, I could be spectacularly missing the point. Personally I just feel it works a bit better if you can see that it is a set up, but it's not quite so obvious what it's setting up.</p> <p>As soon as a rooster and a cat are mentioned you know what's coming. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118805 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 11:16:45 +0000 Oxbridge 118805@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>'you can see what's coming a mile off'. Fnarr fnarr, hur hur, yip yip, etc. Actually I thought being predictable was pretty much the whole point but interested in further feedback. Last para gone and some further twiddles made. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118798 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 10:24:50 +0000 Vertically Challenged Giant 118798@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Don't think the last para works either. Also think that the rooster part feels a bit too forced for me, you can see what's coming a mile off.</p> <p>Is there room at the end for something like:</p> <p>The final straw came when Turnbull came home drunk one night while Waterson was trying to sleep, kicked her back doors in and left a terrible mess in the back passage. So she reported him for rape. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118793 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 09:55:54 +0000 cinquecento 118793@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>room for 'under the doctor' ?<br /> mostly oo-er good; don't like last para - logic doesn't flow from first sentence to second, so 4 Matrons... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=41656#post-118786 Tue, 17 Apr 2012 09:38:42 +0000 Oxbridge 118786@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>In what is seen as a 'big blow' for celebrity watchers, The Right Reverend Geoffrey Turnbull, Bishop of Norwich, and former Hollyoaks actress Gemma Waterson have announced that their relationship has ended. According to Waterson's agent, the couple had endured too many ups and downs but simply could not stick things out any longer.</p> <p>A source close to Turnbull said that Waterson was suffering from emotional problems and he didn't want to give her one more by commenting in public. 'She has many knockers but Geoffrey won't be one of them. In fact, when two intrusive journalists pushed him too hard on the subject, he knocked one out'.</p> <p>According to Waterson's friends, however, she had frequently been up all night with worry about Turnbull's eccentric behaviour. It is alleged that he was recently abusive to Waterson when retrieving a prize winning Rhode Island Red rooster from the jaws of her pet cat, which had just chased it into a river at the bird sanctuary she runs in Devon.</p> <p>'He was screaming as he pulled his throbbing red cock from out of her wet pussy,' said Charlotte Brown, an assistant at the sanctuary. 'There were boobies and great tits banging about all the over place. Then they all calmed down, went upstairs and had sex.'</p> <p>Unfortunately, Turnbull came home drunk later that night while Waterson was trying to sleep, kicked her back doors in and left a terrible mess in the back passage. As a result, he is under arrest on suspicion of sexual assault and the split is permanent. AND the one in their relationship.</p> <p>Hello! magazine editor Rosie Nixon said that this was the worst news she had heard since the much loved comedy trio James Price, Hamish MacDougall and Paddy Murphy stopped going into pubs together after they realised that they were broadly similar in terms of intelligence and generosity.</p> <p>[Hat tip to VCG.
