JUSTIN:
If you think of Milton Keynes... then you'll probably end up feeling a bit depressed. After all, it is one of the most soulless places on earth.

However, the town could soon have a new claim to fame - as it currently stands on the brink of becoming the first place in Britain to ban... chewing gum?

POLICE OFFICER:
She's though here, sarge.

SERGEANT:
Well, well, well - look who's been caught chewing on gum again. What's your excuse this time, eh?

TEENAGE GIRL:
It's medicinal.

SERGEANT:
Ha! (TO POLICE OFFICER) Did you hear that?

TEENAGE GIRL:
But it's true! It's to help get me off cigarettes!

SERGEANT:
You really are a daft little girl, aren't you? Listen, smoking is harmless - but gum - now, THAT'LL kill you!

TEENAGE GIRL:
Err; I think you've got that the wrong way round.

SERGEANT:
Oh, I have, have I? Well, then answer me this - if gum's harmless, then why have the council gone and banned it?

TEENAGE GIRL:
To reduce littering.

SERGEANT:
See, you can't even... eh?

POLICE OFFICER:
Actually, I think she's right, sarge.

SERGEANT:
Button it! (TO TEENAGE GIRL) Listen, you think you're a right little smarty pants, don't you?

TEENAGE GIRL:
Maybe.

SERGEANT:
Well, you ain't! (TO POLICE OFFICER) Hey, how many packets did you find on her?

POLICE OFFICER:
Three.

SERGEANT:
Oh, well in that case, we can have her on intent to supply!

TEENAGE GIRL:
What?

SERGEANT:
And do know how many YEARS you can get for that?

TEENAGE GIRL:
No.

SERGEANT:
Well... neither do I. But what I DO know, young lady; is that this time - you've bitten off more than you can chew!

POLICE OFFICER:
Actually sarge, nicotine gum happens to be exempt from the ban.

SERGEANT:
It is? Well, then why'd you bring her in?

POLICE OFFICER:
I didn't - it was you who drove her here, remember?

SERGEANT:
Now, why would I do a thing like that?

POLICE OFFICER:
Well, because it's Bring Your Daughter to Work Day!

I like this, but feel it could be shorter and maybe more action. Like the arrest itself and show the different types of gum she has in her posession

I Thought This was a very good sketch especially the bit at the end. To Improve I thought the action was not very good because it was just in one place only.

I liked the line "we can have her on intent to supply"

There were some good lines in here and, in particular, this one made me laugh:

"You really are a daft little girl, aren't you? Listen, smoking is harmless - but gum - now, THAT'LL kill you!"

About midway, though, it did seem to get a bit repetitive. I think shortening it would help. A stronger finish too that was related to the sketch would improve it to - the bring your daughter to work day felt a bit bolted on.

Nice sketch - could even push the drugs/slippery slope angle further (along
the lines of intent to distribute which was very good, e.g "before you know it
your snorting xanthum" or something). Bit about the daughter didn't really
work for me.
