this reminds me of Monty P's Prince Walter being sent on a hazardous expedition by the King of his prospective bride, Mitzi Gaynor, the task to go to the newsagent and buy 20 Rothmans.....
Narrator: How all the happy residents of Happy Valley cheered Prince Walter as he walked back up the hill in triumph. But just as he was approaching the castle, he was run over by a London bus, which only goes to show.
(sound of brakes screeching, Prince Walter's last gasp)
Narrator: And the moral of the story is... Smoking can ruin your health. The End.
