The doctor says "I've got some bad news for you. You've only got ten."
The patient says "Ten what? Ten months? Ten weeks? Ten days?"
The doctor says "Nine".
(Thanks to The Tipster, who told me this last night.

Minutes? Btw, when he went to the doctorS - how many doctors did he see? That's just the way we phrase it musik, we'd probably say "I'm going to *see* the doctor" but also "I'm going *to* the doctors" - maybe because when we do need to see our health professional we generally go to a 'Doctors Practice' where there's usually more than one doctor. It could also be because our language is occasionally unfathomable, I'm not sure.

That's it, I'm definitely not giving up the day job for a stand-up routine.
Let me flesh it out a bit and see if this works -
A man goes to see his doctor to discuss the results of his tests. The doctor says "I've got some bad news, I'm afraid. You've only got ten."
The patient is both alarmed and puzzled. He says "Ten what? Ten months? Ten weeks? Ten days?"
The doctor pauses for a while, looking at his watch, before he says "Nine..."

My Doctor told me I had the highest cholesterol he had ever seen. He said “when you die, which you will very soon, would you will your body to me”
I said certainly, for medical research?
He said no, so I can hang you in the back garden for the blue tits to peck at..

Why isn’t Wilco Johnson in that video... Wiki says He left the band in April 1977, following disagreements over the tracks to be included in the Sneakin' Suspicion album. Johnson maintains that he was kicked out of the band, while the remaining band members claimed that he had left voluntarily.
