FUN OF THE FAIR

EXT. DAY. FUNFAIR.

YOUNG COUPLE STAND IN A QUEUE FOR THE BIGGEST RIDE IN THE COUNTRY. THEY ARE EXCITED.

WOMAN. Oh, my God, it’s nearly our turn. I’m so terrified. Oh, my God, Steve.

STEVE. We’ll be in the next group to go on.

THE PAIR LAUGH AND SHUFFLE ABOUT EXCITEDLY AS THE PEOPLE UNLOAD FROM THE RIDE.

WOMAN. Oh, my God, Steve, can you imagine if you were sick on that whirly ride. How awful would that be. Urg… it’d spray everywhere, all over everyone. Oh, my God, Steve, how embarrassing would that be?

STEVE. Shut up (laughing) I’d just puke down inside my top then nobody would see.

WOMAN. No!

STEVE. I would. That’s what you should do. It’s got to be better than chucking up over everyone.

WOMAN. I suppose you’re right.

THEY ENTER THE RIDE WITH THE REST OF THE GROUP AND SIT DOWN. THE RIDE BEGINS AND WOMAN STARTS TO GO GREEN. SHE PULLS OUT HIS TOP AND IS SICK INTO IT.

WOMAN. Thanks for that, Steve, you were right, it is better.

Whistling nnocently Did I really just post this? Sorry! Teary

I actually quite like this despite the fact that it is quite childish. If i were you i would play up how awful it would be to be sick on everyone, a couple of detailed lines.

Then get steve to come accross as more patronising to his girlfriend, call her stupid etc - acting overly macho.

Then Steve sicks everywhere as soon as the ride starts.

Just an idea. Dunno.

I love this sort of daft stuff. I don't know why but I do. Thanks for the tips and I think you're right. Ta!

You can go the way Candice says which would be fine, but I prefer your original sketch.

It's a simple idea and childish maybe but Mr Bean is also childish and the Mr Bean character is actually this countries biggest comedy export. They love him all over the world, and it's silly and childish humour!!!

Great stuff, right up my street!!! Laughing out loud
