The inspiration behind this sketch came about after a bad date! After arranging to meet this girl I had met from a dating website, I had probably one of the worst dinners of my life! She was incredibly immature and seemed uninterested in anything I said, constantly checking her phone at the dinner table and playing with her hair and to top it all off, I had to pay for the meal!!!
After pondering on how the date could have gone any worse, I thought to myself how funny it would be if she looked nothing like her profile picture at all and how many men have been tricked into dates who have used different or incredibly misleading profile pictures on the dating websites!
I then went a step further and thought how funny it would be if it wasn't a woman at all, but an inanimate object and that is when I thought what the date would have been like if she turned out to be an inflatable sex toy!
After writing these random collection of thoughts down, I wrote a script and included different scenarios that could occur on our date and what the aftermath may be and that is when the idea to film a sketch about it came from.
I would meet this girl on a dating website and call my best friend up to boast about having a date. He would then give me advice on what to wear and what to make her for dinner. It is only after the date arrives that the audience realise that she is in actual fact an inflatable female sex doll. After dinner which consists of beans on toast, we sleep together and it is only in the morning that I end up regretting it. A few days later and I turn up at my best friends house unexpectedly to have a few drinks and a catch up only as I walk in, to my horror I find my best friend in bed with the very doll that I had dated a few nights ago. In my state of rage, I find a knife and pop her.
To be honest, this date sounds a lot better than the one that I had! And the moral of the sketch is to never trust a date you meet on the internet!!!
