TOPLESS BEACH

EXT. BEACH. DAY.

A COUPLE OF TOPLESS LOVELIES ARE FROLICKING IN THE SURF. OTHERS ON THE BEACH ARE ALSO TOPLESS. A MAN IS LOUNGING ON HIS TOWEL, WATCHING THEM. THE MAN TURNS TO HIS GIRLFRIEND, WHO IS OUT OF SHOT.

MAN
You're not comfortable with this whole topless beach thing, are you?

THE SHOT OPENS UP TO SHOW HIS GIRLFRIEND ON THE TOWEL BESIDE HIM. SHE IS WEARING AN OLD-FASHIONED DEEP SEA DIVING SUIT, COMPLETE WITH HELMET AND BOOTS.

END.

More of a saucy postcard than a sketch I thought.

I'm certain that must have been done before??

Me also.

Don't know if it has been done before, but David is probably right that it would work better as a postcard.

You could have the girlfriend buried up to the neck in sand as an alternative although its a bit predictable. Or, wrapped up tightly in one of those windbreaker things. Or, even more stupid encased in a lilo sandwich.

....or wrapped up in bandages like a mummy. :P

The girlfriend could be just a pair of legs.

Laughing out loud
Or combining this and Nigel's comment, have a mound of sand, with a pair of legs sticking out.

It's an interesting idea and I think it would get a quick visual laugh.

Future ones with a pantomime horse or burqa?

Maybe it's a blow up doll in a big dress and hat?
