Antarctica quickie
Written by tamper

A quick two-hander in a Little Britain-esque stylee. Maybe there's legs to run to further sketches - what do you think?

EXT: ANTARCTIC TUNDRA. Frozen barren landscape stretches for miles, while harsh snow whips and dances through the air. In the midst, we focus on a small Antarctic RESEARCH BASE.

INT: RESEARCH BASE. Amid shelves full of boxes of research equipment, huddle two researchers, FAT and THIN, nursing steaming cups of cocoa and staring out into the frosty snowscape beyond. FAT is quiet and irritable, while THIN is compelled to fill silences.


THIN: So...think we'll get a white Christmas?


END.

Gave me a solid laugh. Looking forward to read something a little longer, though.
More please

Not sure why, but I could have just seen Peter Sellers and Spike Milligan doing this. I have no greater compliment!
