Sitcom Mission

Sarantasia

By: Lucy Dwyer

Sitcom Mission 2010 finalist

Sarah is a nurse and, as you would expect, works in a hospital. In a scenario that's familiar to most, she works incredibly hard, but is always being passed over for promotion. This particular time sees her leaving work in a fit of pique and drinking more than is recommended by the General Medical Council. On her way home she falls through a worm hole in time, into a fantasy world which she must help save. Yes, I know.
