The Co-Op


Joe Bloggs dreads the time-consuming weekly shop at a distant superstore. Nor is he keen on that universally hated chore, chucking old sausages in the bin (you what?);  not when he could be playing hide the sausage in bed with his ‘darling wife’.  At least, that’s what I take a cameo appearance by a roaring lion to signify; although Joe might intend it as a metaphor for a family outing to the local safari park. In Co-op: The Movie 2 - a separate, equally protracted, doubly irritating monologue, scripted in the saccharine style of a ‘Love Is’ wall-hanging - gooey-wooey wifey agrees that shopping locally is the solution. Marital bliss restored! The Co-op is proud of its divi but the divvy that dreamt up this over-egged, cheesy souffle should be reduced to clear alongwith the sausages Joe just can’t resist.
