Paul Merton unofficial
THE FAMOUS "POLICEMAN IN COURT" MONOLOGUE.
This is one of Paul Merton's better known early monologues. "On Wednesday 14th December last at approximately 10:43 AM while patrolling along Streatham High Road I observed a motor vehicle illegally parked outside the all night Clement Atlee massage parlour. I questioned the occupant, a Mr Jack E Stewart, who said: "Urinate off you effin love child" Mr Stewart then apologised and offered me a yellow chocolate covered confectionery known to the uniformed branch as a Smartie. I accepted the smartie and swallowed it. A smartie which I now know contained an hallucinogenic drug. Thirty five minutes later, while sat on an intergalactic spacecraft bound for the planet Zanussi, I observed Constable Parrish approaching me disguised as a fortnights holiday in Benidorm. "Hello Constable Parrish !" I said through the back of my neck."And what news of my Lord Buckingham?" To which Constable Parrish replied "Get down off that bus shelter, you stupid git." I then ate Constable Parrish. His notebook then exploded releasing a thousand tiny giraffe heads on little penguin bodies. I was enticed down from said bus shelter by the lovely Marilyn Monroe, former screen starlet. We kissed, formally, until Marilyn, sweet tender Marilyn, revealed herself as Mr Brinsley Ocomo, a scrap metal dealer from Peckham. A panda patrol car flew past and three large uniformed pandas got out. I was charged by Chief Constable Warren with gross indecency, impersonating a Spaniard, acting the goat and eating a police Constable while in the course of his duty. I burst into hysterical laughter which lasted five months. And that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."
