Book sequel

Here's a good one from aforementioned show Gavin And Stacey. It had me rolling on the floor.
We cut to a quiet middle class home. Two women (stable characters) are sitting reading. One of them are reading this book.
She closes it with finality, and they have a brief chat about the satisfaction of finishing a book. The other woman is reading the Satanic Verses, and she says it's tough going.
Then the first woman says: "well, I think I'll get cracking on the sequel." And she picks up this book. She says "Same author... he's had a terrible time of it."
