Billy’s Tombstones

The setting shows part of an ocean liner's sun deck. Billy, in love with Beatrice Sloane (Sara Lewis), attempts to propose, but suddenly loses his false teeth. Romance is all off for the time being and sixteen minutes of screamingly funny talk and business are occupied in the search for them and their final recovery. The other four members of the company are unimportant.
Every line sparkles with irresistibly delightful wit, and the whole sketch presents an almost perfect example of sustained entertainment. There is not a dull moment from start to finish.
