Very funny stuff. I liked your 'interpretation' of Prince Phillip. The bit where
he was shouting 'Die das boot' had me in stitches. What a great idea. It made

-- like it. (L.E.T) I
LOVE IT! I wish it didn't have to end. The format is perfect. The structure is
tight with three acts. The characters are wonderful. The comedy was hilarious.
Extremely visual, concise and quick. You did an exceptional job. (J.J.) EPISODE
