Parky and Sachs -- "More than Friends"

Funny story written by jeremy griffiths

Friday, 14 November 2008

Recent attention given to "Fawlty Towers" star Andrew Sachs, (78) has uncovered his "close" friendship with recently retired chat show host Michael Parkinson (73).

Sources close to the couple remained tight lipped about the "relationship" however one disaffected ex friend of the couple was prepared to say off the record, that the couple were to be seen "Bowling at the Cottage"

The couple have often been seen in earnest conversation as they evade press on their early evening outings.

The couple are also rumoured to "hang out" at "Crowngreen", Parky's Yorkshire holiday home.

Parky's agent, father of three Andrew Neville-West,in an obvious attempt to hide the truth claimed to be a frequenter of "The Cottage" and issued a "strong rebuttal" of any inappropriate relationship, pointing out, somewhat fancifully, that "The Cottage" was in fact a local pub close to the couples' homes, and that "Bowling" was in truth Crown green bowling on the green adjacent to the pub.

Such far-fetched explanations are obviously a lot of balls and will not wash with our investigative team who will leave no sod unturned to bring you the truth.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
