An electrician, who read a Grauniad article which said sudden cardiac arrest is caused by the heart’s electrical system not working properly, has set up a human rewiring service.


He explained to Newsbiscuit that electrical wiring has moved on a lot over the years since electricity was discovered. Citing the lyrics of Randy Newman’s version of My Old Kentucky Home 'I got a fire in my belly

And a fire in my head', he went on to point out that house fires caused by dodgy electrics were once fairly common, but now much rarer, thanks to improvements in the components used, but anyone born before the 13th Edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations in 1955, is likely to have knackered relays, circuit breakers and rotted insulation on the wires, so is far more susceptible to things like sudden cardiac arrest and neurological disorders.


Watts Up Doc Electrics Ltd., the electrician’s company says it can do a complete body rewiring service in a day, replacing many of the parts with state of the art electronic components for less than most people imagine; and is inviting pensioners to call for a no-obligation quotation in the comfort of their home, with a 10% reduction on presentation of the coupon attached to this article.

King Charles’ private cardiologist has advised the monarch to have a battery of tests undertaken after he announced today he has a heavy heart.


It appears the duty footman failed to observe any change in weight when the King was weighed on the royal bathroom scales, and can expect to be mercilessly flogged if the MRI scan the cardiologist has arranged shows up an abnormal enlargement of the heart, however it isn’t yet known when this will be done, as it requires locating an MRI scanner with a blue blood filter, which the NHS has been remiss in purchasing.


Newsbiscuit asked Professor M O delmaker what the prognosis for the King might be if it does turn out he has an abnormally heavy heart, but he was in a silly mood after five pints of Olde and Filthye and just said “Aorta know the answer, and if it comes to me while I’m taking a leak, I’ll tell you.”
