Good for a laugh, here's a sketch from the BBC "The One Ronnie" show with a man seeking tech support from a fruit vendor for his "blackberry" which is "frozen." A series of fruit and gadget puns ensue. One thing that you should know before watching the clip is that "Orange" is a cellular network in Great Britain.
[My Blackberry Is Not Working - The One Ronnie, Preview - BBC One]
[Ronald Balfour "Ronnie" Corbett, (born 4 December 1930)]
I bought something from you last week and I’m very disappointed.
[Henry Richard "Harry" Enfield (born 30 May 1961)]Oh, ya, what’s the problem?
[Ronnie Corbett]
Ya, well, my blackberry is not working!
[Harry Enfield]What’s the matter, it run out of juice?
[Ronnie Corbett]
No, no, it’s completely frozen!
[Harry Enfield]Oh, ya, I can see that! I’ll tell you what, let’s try on an Orange.
[Ronnie Corbett]
That’s got a few black spots – you see!
[Harry Enfield]Oh, dear! Oh, ya, sorry about that ya
[Ronnie Corbett]
Ronnie Corbett : Would you get my Blackberry working?
[Harry Enfield]Well could be an application issue. Where did you store the blackberry
[Ronnie Corbett]
It was on my desktop.
[Harry Enfield]Well you could use a mouse to drag the blackberry to the trash then after you’ve done that you might want to launch the blackberry from the desktop.
[Ronnie Corbett]
I’ve already tried that few times, all it did was mess up windows.
[Harry Enfield]Well it might be worth waiting a couple of weeks, they got the latest blackberry coming in then.
[Ronnie Corbett]
Do you have a date?
[Harry Enfield]Certainly.
[Ronnie Corbett]
Let me put that date in my diary.
[Harry Enfield]Anything else I can help you with?
[Ronnie Corbett]
Yes, yes, I’ve also got a problem to be honest, with my apple
Harry Enfield :Dear oh dear, that is an old apple isn’t it? When did you buy it?
[Ronnie Corbett]
Last week.
[Harry Enfield]Last week? They’ve brought out two new apples since then. What’s the problem with it?
[Ronnie Corbett]
I’m trying to put my dongle in it and it won’t fit.
[Harry Enfield]Oh yeah, and how big is your dongle?
[Ronnie Corbett]
Well I don’t know much about these things but my wife has seen a few dongles in her time and she says a little bit on the small side.
[Harry Enfield]Frankly there’s nothing I can do about it. Tell you what? Let me try booting it. There it’s crashed. Anything else I can help you with?
[Ronnie Corbett]
Funnily enough yes. My grandson’s birthday is soon. Now he’s already got an apple and a blackberry. I mean do you have anything else he might just like?
[Harry Enfield]Well we’re doing a special on these. I can’t make head or tail of them. The kids seem to like them egg box..360!
