Hehe 
They edited the shit out of it though. (Not that I'm complaining!)
*Lot* of writers yesterday in the credits (must have lasted about five minutes!).
Biggest laugh from me yesterday was the Indiana Jones quickie. Did someone here write that?

One of mine was on last night - heavily edited from sketch to one-liners, but still happy.
Mine was
... and next on BBC2, Delia Smith's how to cheat at A-Levels
which I hope raised a chuckle
As it's the first time I've had anything accepted by the BBC after trying a few other shows, I'm pleased.
That was a good one BJ, in fact the whole show was good. I think its found its feet!
We all love it now BSG people get their stuff used!

Maybe they should call it Tilt brought to you by BSG 
lol Gr8 show in all senses of the phrase!
Well done Smithy and bj too. Congrats people.

Any word on whether this show has been succesful enough to get a second series yet?
Just listened again to the show online. I have only heard this show and the previous two, but I believe it has improved each time.
That said, my opinion may have been tempered by the fact that I was waiting for my sketch to air.
It was the Dutch Ambassador conversation for info (and was also edited as per others' experience).

Not yet. Victoria Lloyd posted somewhere that Play & Record is back for a second series later in the year so (hopefully!) it looks like that and Tilt may be the 'ongoing' open submissions programmes for the forseeable future.
They can stick us cheaply on BBC7 now and spend their 'new talent' money there!
Dan
What was the theme for 'Play and Record' ? I missed it last time round!
Anything and everything from what I recall. There's a thread entitled the same if you search for it.
Dan
Does anyone know what the legal implications are of recording a sketch you wrote for Tilt? For posterity reasons.
And also how one might go about actually making such a recording?
Yep, I know a guy who scored on Tilt last night who doesn't post on here too, the 1991 Football Writer of the Year as it happens....! Congrats.
Quote: Griff @ April 25 2008, 12:52 PM BSTFirstly belated congrats to everyone who scored in Tilt last night (and indeed so far). I also know a couple of writers not of this parish who scored last night, Tilt are certainly clocking up the numbers of non-commissioned writers.
As far as taping Tilt goes, on my Mac I use an application called WireTap which can save streaming audio into MP3 files. I'm sure there will be Windows equivalents. I'm not a lawyer, but I shouldn't think anyone at the BBC would have any problem with people doing this for personal use, it's selling these recordings or sharing them over the Internet that will get you into trouble.
I use a free thing called Audacity.
If you google for it you'll probably find it for download.
Just a note to let you know that the other day I had a quick chat with the Broadcast Assistant who works on Tilt, and she said they were really impressed with the stuff that came in from the non-commissioned writers, loads of good stuff, tons more than they were expecting to use. So congratulations to everyone here who got stuff on. You've now joined the likes of Andy Hamilton, David Renwick, Jeremy Hardy, Ade Edmondson, Guy Jenkin and dozens more whose first professional writing income came from a topical comedy sketch broadcast on the BBC. Really glad your persistence has paid off.
