Where can I find this comedy sketch?

[chakka35]

The other day I heard a comic monologue written by Keith Waterhouse called, I think, "The Shepherd's Warning". It tells how the nativity shepherds were stopped by a policeman on the way To Jerusalem.
I have searched the internet and can find no trace of it. Anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried this site?

Thanks, Trimeresurus, but ther's little point in referring me back to my own thread on a different site! Thanks anyway.

Thanks, mxyzptlk. I had been trying to find that link again after using it in the past. It can't help this time but it might in future. Thanks again.

ther'e no mention of it being a 'sketch' in his wikipedia page. but there is a note in his orbituary:

He was against bureaucracy, especially the bureaucracy of petty officialdom: he wrote a memorable column one Christmas Eve, viewing the Nativity through the eyes of three wise social workers appalled by conditions in the holy manger and determined to take the new-born infant into care.

could that be it?

Thanks, crisgal and cancross. They're both excellent links which add to my knowledge of KW nativity skits. But the one I am looking for is definitely about the shepherds being accosted by a policeman on their way to the birthplace.

Thanks, folks. Found it! It's in a book called "Waterhouse at Large" which I have just bought from Amazon for the vast sum of 1p!
