This cartoon depicts a news anchor presenting a report titled “Furniture Making News”.
The news anchor’s dialogue adds to the joke: “Last week we saw the first leg, this week I’ll show you the second leg, and next week we’ll take a look at the top of the table.”
The humour lies in the double meaning of the words – while the topic appears to be about furniture making, the phrasing sounds exactly like something you might hear on a football programme discussing two-legged matches and league tables.
It’s a light-hearted play on football commentary clichés and DIY terminology, creating a clever mix of sports and woodworking humour.
