Sunil Patel Brings 'Megalodon' to Scotland
by BWW News Desk - Aug 2, 2018


Having been observing the white tribe for sometime now, Sunil Patel is ready to present his thesis. Why white people can't be themselves unless they are in fancy dress, why the best thing about Christmas is not the presents and why fearing the fall of Western civilisation is a futile worry given we're all actually cockroaches anyway, Sunil has all the answers. An outsider on the inside, Sunil fears he may have been unwittingly integrated because his car has a National Trust sticker he can't remove. But before he delves into his findings, he will do five minutes on butt-holes. Megalodon is an hour filled with unique observations and anecdotes of parental misgivings that just might prove that Sunil Patel is Britain's answer to Noam Chomsky, for the microwave meal generation.
