Mutiny of the Barony (The Sequel) sketch - Mercorabilia

The other sketch was just crying out for a continuation - so here it is:

John: Hello – who are you?

Louis: I’m the king.

John: You can’t be – I’m the king.

Louis: Oh – I rather thought I was.

John: No – I’m definitely the king. Look - I’ve got a crown and everything.

<Door opens>

Baron: Ah, King Louis. I trust everything is to your satisfaction.

John: You mean you’re behind this?

Baron: Of course. We considered getting you to sign another charter after your little spat but then decided what we needed instead was a brand new king. And so we found one.

John: But…but you can’t do this! It’s completely unconstitutional.

Baron: Not according to the constitution you signed at Runnymede, mate. Just look at this bit here.

John: (mumbling as he reads) Well that seems fairly comprehensive. It appears there’s only one thing I can do to stop your diabolical scheme.

Baron: What’s that?

John: This.

<Drops down dead>

Louis: I say - that’s rather clever.

Baron: What do you mean?

Louis: Well the English people aren’t going to want me on the throne, are they? Not when they’ve got a brand new king in the shape of John’s little son, Henry, to take the throne. And it must be a pretty good situation for you barons as well, won’t it? After all Henry’s only 9 – he’s going to need a Protector.

Baron: Good point –  ready my horse. Are you going to be alright getting back to France?

Louis: Oh yes – I’ll be fine.

Baron: Good. Don’t come back, will you
