Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Wish 143 is a 2009 short film (24 minutes) directed by Ian Barnes.David is a 15-year-old boy. Like most 15-year-old boys, he is preoccupied with sex and the prospects of losing his virginity. Unlike most 15-year-old boys, he is terminally ill, dying of lung cancer, already committed to a pediatric hospital ward.When a representative of the Dreamscape Charity (Rory Kinnear) comes to the ward to ask David what his last wish is, David says he wants to have sex with a woman. The Dreamscape guy suggests meeting a famous soccer player, but David is having none of it. The priest at the hospital (Jim Carter, Mr. Carson from Downton Abbey) gently suggests a less outrageous wish, but David remains insistent.Jodie Whittaker appears as Maggie, a call girl. | |

Captain Ersatz: The "Dreamscape Charity" is an obvious stand-in for the real-life Make-a-Wish Foundation. | |

Abhorrent Admirer: David is taken aback when a round woman three times his age, having seen the article in the paper, shows up at the cancer ward and offers to help him lose his virginity. He claims that he's already done it. | |
