A friend of mine is completing a script for a short comedy film to be shot later this year.

I learned today that I have been given a speaking part. Hurrah!!





Trouble is - it's a traffic warden

Is it possible for a PHer to convincingly play such a role?

Yes, but a severe case of constipation will probably help.

Be careful - if it's a big role, you might be expected to study for it and gain some experience as a traffic warden!

If you do, don't tell us - oh the shame

Hmm, I did a Google Image search for 'Gestapo Officer' but there was almost nothing. Odd.

Worse, the reprobate will be in my own TVR. I may need psychotherapy afterwards...

No no no . . .
Just ask Vinny to do to you what he did to Gazza when the ref wasn't watching.

You'll have the facial expression sorted in no time.
