Brainier than Bubbles

Scene: Waterstones bookstore in Chelmsford, Essex on a busy Saturday afternoon.

Ollie: Hello, I was wondering if you have the book Me, Cheeta [1]?

Cashier: *searches computer* I'm afraid we are sold out. Have you heard the news on it?

Ollie: Oh yes, that it's competing for a few awards?

Cashier: No, that the chimp who wrote it was actually not Cheeta but another one that isn't famous.

Ollie: *mind boggle stare* Erm... no, I hadn't heard of that.

[1] The "autobiography" of Cheeta the acting chimp, who looks back on its career in Hollywood. Supposedly very funny. Sold out everywhere.
