Fonejacker is a new TV series, where one man, under a number of different guises, plays prank calls on the public. The animations which go with the calls are very Monty Pythonesque. Fonejacker is hilarious and if you haven’t caught it yet check it out on Youtube. Below is one of my favourites, the fonejacker playing a Nigerian scam artist.

A bloke see’s an ad in a pet shop:

“Talking Centipede For Sale - £5000″

He decides to buy it and takes it home in a small box and after about 30 minutes he opens the lid and asks it if it fancies going for a beer.

The centipede doesn’t answer!

Raising his voice the man repeats the question, “Hey, do you fancy going for a pint?”

Again there is no response from the box.

Getting angry thinking he’s been ripped off he shouts the question again at which point the centipede stick his head out the box and says,

“I heard you the first time, I was putting my fuckin’ shoes on!”

It’s two o’clock in the morning and a husband and wife are asleep, when suddenly the phone rings. The husband picks up the phone and says, “Hello?… How the heck do I know? What am I, the weather man?” — and prompty slams the phone down.

His wife rolls over and asks, “Who was that?”

The husband replies. “I don’t know. Some guy who wanted to know if the coast was clear.”
