Description |
Visual Search (The Granada Film and Video Awards): Comedy category - the tale of a young girl who wins- and loses- £1m. Everything is going wrong - she is behind with the rent; arrives late at the hairdressers where she works and is given a warning by her boss; the customers get on her nerves. Then she hears the radio DJ announce the winning ticket number in a £1m competition. She realises she has won - shouts that her boss can keep his job, and dashes out of the shop, bumping into a passing tramp. Dancing around in delight, the winning ticket falls unnoticed out of her pocket. She arrives home to a notice to quit from her landlord. As she searches for the ticket the camera pans outside to a shot of the tramp in a chauffeur driven limousine. |
