Default Answered: Out of Town (1988) *solved*

I have asked this before many moons ago but I am determined to find out what is was called.
It may have been late 80's early 90's in colour and all I remember is it was short, a young lad gets his foot caught in a hole on the moors at the side of a lane. I think cars drive by but no one helps him. There may have been a model plane involved but that may have been something else I watched. Thanks

I remember this. It had quite a dark ending. I think it was a short film shown as part of one those short film seasons on BBC2 or Channel 4 but the title escapes me

Did it end with a model aeroplane ?? I used to watch a lot of these. I thought they were a series of shorts called Short and Curlies but that comes up as a Mike Leigh film. There was also the Zip with Denis Lawson and one called The Drip but can't quite remember it. I do recall a woman pulling hair out of a plug hole and a man eventually appears. Ring any bells ?

The Drip is actually called The Kitchen Sink.

The one with the hole might actually be called The Hole or something. At the end the guy gets sucked into the hole leaving only his walkman, which a passerby picks up and walks off, listening to.

There's no model plane in it, I don't think. That might be something else.
