ARTHUR 100%
Actions:
-Trying to pull a sword out of a stone. Grunting heavily.
-Hear the Duke say his line and begrudgingly sets out on his way.
-Arthur bursts into town square, dishevelled but with beers in hand. His relieved smile soon turns into
shock as he sees the sword has been removed by some other guy. Arty is now bummed.
Arty : Son of a ...
Arty reprise: I loosened it.
THE DUKE 100%
Watching Arthur struggle with the sword.
Duke: Arthur, give it a rest. Fetch us some drinks from the local.
THE KING (referred to in the script as the 'other guy')
-See him accidentally pulling the stone out, He didn't really think he was capable of it.
- His friends / towns people are now crowd surfing him with the sword in celebration

BWS Character 100% & Team Member 100%
- They have presence/ oomph on screen!
- They should be warm, energetic, and bring the tone of BWS characters on screen: Matey, can have a laugh, kind etc...
- They should feel modern, naturally 'cool'/aspirational but relatable. The kind of person you'd want to hang with.
We see a BWS character comes into frame – they talk close up to camera.
BWS Character /subtitle: Order ahead and pick up your drinks within 30 mins.
We see a close up of him holding the phone, ordering within app.
BWS Character/subtitle: Coz queuing *scoff* is so ancient history.
A BWS team member enters frame taking Arthur’s tepid, warm beer from his hands replacing
it with a fresh, frosty new beer* as he says to Arthur...
BWS team member: *sigh* Arty, why’d you leave to get drinks? How medieval. BWS deliver within an hour. Guaranteed.
