Radio Announcer:
That was Part 2 of the death of Mary Queen of Scots; adapted for the radio. And now, Radio Four will explode. [interval music plays until the radio suddenly combusts]

Pepperpot 1:
We'll have to watch the telly then.

Pepperpot 2:
Yes.

Pepperpot 1:
Well, what's on the television then?

Pepperpot 2:
Looks like a penguin.

Pepperpot 1:
No, no, no, no! I didn't mean 'what's on the television set?' I meant 'what program?'

Pepperpot 2:
Oh.

Pepperpot 2:
Funny that penguin being there, isn't it? What's it doing there?

Pepperpot 1:
Standing.

Pepperpot 2:
I can see that!

Pepperpot 1:
If it lays an egg, it will fall down the back of the television set.

Pepperpot 2:
We'll have to watch that. Unless it's a male.

Pepperpot 1:
Ooh, I hadn't thought of that.

Pepperpot 2:
Yes. Looks fairly butch.

Pepperpot 1:
Perhaps it comes from next door.

Pepperpot 2:
Penguins don't come from next door; they come from the Antarctic!

Pepperpot 1:
BURMA!

Pepperpot 2:
Why'd you say 'Burma'?

Pepperpot 1:
I panicked.

Pepperpot 2:
Perhaps it's from the zoo.

Pepperpot 1:
Which zoo?

Pepperpot 2:
How should I know which zoo? I'm not Dr. Bloody Bronowski!

Pepperpot 1:
How does Dr. Bronowski know which zoo it came from?

Pepperpot 2:
He knows everything.

Pepperpot 1:
Ooh, I wouldn't like that. It'd take all the mystery out of life. Anyway, if it came from the zoo, it'd have 'Property of the Zoo' stamped on it.

Pepperpot 2:
No it wouldn't. They don't stamp animals 'Property of the Zoo'! You couldn't stamp a huge lion!

Pepperpot 1:
They stamp them when they're small.

Pepperpot 2:
What happens when they moult?

Pepperpot 1:
Lions don't moult!

Pepperpot 2:
No, but penguins do. There! I've run rings around you, logically.

Pepperpot 1:
Oh, intercourse the penguin!
