SKETCH: The Drink'll Kill You [2006]

THE DRINK’LL KILL YOU

Scene: an upstairs toilet in a Wetherspoon’s pub. Two YOUNG MEN in their mid-20s stand washing their hands and checking their appearance in the mirror.

As they finish up, both head for the door at the same time. The
FIRST MAN holds it open for the SECOND MAN and he nods in acknowledgement as he walks through.

Out in the hallway, there are two doors emblazoned with placards. The first reads
“BACK TO PUB”. The second reads “FIERY DEATH”.

Without thinking, the SECOND MAN casually barges through the door marked “Fiery Death”, only to be consumed by an inferno and die screaming in agony as the flames lick out into the hallway.

The
FIRST MAN frowns for a moment upon witnessing this before nonchalantly pushing open the door marked “Back to Pub”.

FIN.
