I'd post a picture of Tim Brooke-Taylor as an attachment if I could figure out how to enable this. I'm not sure if it's even possible with the way the forum is currently set up. Oh well.

bump again. Maybe some new members may like to see and comment upon my outline.

Actually while I'm at it here's an idea for the goodnight sequence.

Kermit: Okay our show is finished for tonight, but before we say good-bye let's give one more big round of applause for Mr. Tim Brooke-Taylor. YAAAAAY!

(Tim comes out dressed in his outfit from the closing number with great, big holes torn in it.)
Kermit: Tim are you feeling all right?
Tim: Well the last time I counted my fingers and toes they were still all there Kermit.

(Suddenly Fozzie runs onstage holding a sheet of paper)
Fozzie: Hey Tim! I have a message for you.
Tim: What does it say Fozzie?
Fozzie: It's from your partners Bill Oddie and Graeme Garden. (reading) It says, "Hiya Timbo. How are you feeling? We're so very sorry we were unable to join you on the Muppet Show but we're so pleased to hear that you had a wonderful time. We also want you to know that we'll be happy to pay the bills for any medical or psychiatric treatments you may need.
Sincerely Bill and Graeme."

Tim (indignant) : Oh thank you guys. You didn't have to rub it in you know.
(starts to burst into tears one more time) Th-they didn't have to rub it in... WAAAH!
Kermit: Ah well. We'll see you next time on the muppet show.

(Tim bends down to cry upon Fozzie's shoulder while Gonzo, Scooter and Hilda all come onstage to offer their sympathy as well.

Anybody like to tell me what they think of this added part?

Bump for the heck of it, but I would also love to seriously have a go at expanding this idea out into a script like my Harry Secombe outline sometime this year.:excited: :big_grin:
