So did you know about the show when you sent the sketches, or was it just a case of the Producers receiving the sketches, and them thinking they might work on that show?

I could, but I'll reveal more when the tx dates is revealed.

I was asked to write something for it.
I had no sketches written (I'm not a sketch writer really) but some got picked up.
Anyone here ever written a writing-based invoice?
Perry?
Yeah, I got one if you want to crib. (I cribbed it so you might as well!)

A what?
What the devil is a writing invoice?
Do you have to invoice Comedy Lab for your sketches that they took up?
Just Write Invoice with your name and address. Number them.

Yeah, I do.
2 mins 10 of material at 140 pounds a minute.

Yeah, but I wanted it to not look like I'm unprofessional.
I am that, but I don't want people knowing.
I WISH it was 500 quid a minute.
That's all you need to put on it though. It's just for their accountants. To get cheques raised for you they need an invoice... that's all.
Go to the newspaper shop and buy a receipt/invoice book, easy, they're only a couple of quid
If it were me, I'd search for a MSWord invoice template.
I seriously hope you're going to pay tax on your earnings, you little scamp.
Quote: Griff @ April 25 2008, 2:43 PM BSTOne question well worth clarifying is whether that 10 seconds can be rounded up to a minute, so you can charge for three minutes. (BBC do this.) That's £116 quid you could be losing out on!
Good point. BBC and Angel Eye both did this for me. Though it was for radio, so didn't quite rake in the frankly astronomical moolah you are getting.

Ms Word?! Are you INSANE. I don't allow that name to be spoken near my PC, let alone have the software.
Regarding tax actually. How does that work. I need to speak to my part-time accountant boss.
