Facts

This sketch was inspired by the Peter Cook’s, ‘One Leg Too Few.’ I loved the hopping of Dudley Moore. The first line that came into my head was ‘I’m a sperm let me in.’ It’s been through many rewrites and shortened drastically. I used it as a scene in a play I performed at the Hen & Chickens theatre in Islington called ‘DreamDuel.’
