What would James do if the leader of the Catholic church got confused about the colour someone with Jaundice might turn?

Say yellow to the Pope.

What would James say if he suddenly found himself to have turned a lighter shade of Black and lost the power to speak in proper sentences?

Eh? Me grey!

If James decided to run a shop selling momentarily fashionable versions of regular floating devices and small rodents native to South America, what would he call it?

Fad Buoys and Chinchillas.

If James found himself in the Matrix and wanted to stop The One winning a sprint against Agent Smith, what would he say?

Run slow, Neo, run!

And now, a more disturbing take on that joke....


Why did JDB want Nicky to dress up as Carrie Fisher in the Star Wars film?


To see a friend in Leia's!

My takes on those jokes were:

What did JDB say when he worked as a cleaner in the Elephant House?

Say Hello To The Poop


Why does JDB hate the black and white episodes of The Avengers on BBC Three?

Because Emma Grey (Emma Peel... ahem..)

What did JDB call his provisonal scheme to give youth offenders work experience at Chester Zoo?

Bad Boys Tame Gorillas

Glad this thread has caught on actually!

Absurdly specific setups to awful puns are the best.

These in particular were cracking.

James and Nicky were out enjoying a quiet pint when a drunken Johnny Borrell came over and started gushing over Nicky's latest hairdo. Without warning, James struck Johnny over the head with a bottle and said....Run, Romeo, Run, and Don't Look Back!
