BANAL INTERVIEWS WITH CELEBRITY GHOSTS – THOMAS HARDY

February 10, 2019

Loon: What a privilege it is to welcome Thomas Hardy to this week’s Celebrity Ghost 3 Question Interview. I can’t help but ask if you were related to Stan Laurel. Were you related to Stan Laurel?

Hardy’s ghost: Not in the least. Why don’t you ask me something sensible?

Loon: Too bad about Laurel. I am told you made up stories about somebody named Tess and somebody named Jude. Wouldn’t Penny and Alan have been better name choices?

Hardy’s ghost: Possibly.

Loon: Finally, did you ever attend a 3 Ring Circus?

Hardy’s ghost: Day in and day out for the duration of my existence.

Loon: Thank you and good-bye.

(Loon inexplicably pirouettes from the room. Hardy’s ghost flutters a ghostly tie and fades.)
