Another one for me. I do wish they would spell my name right though!!!

Is it me or does this run seem to be changing a bit more than other runs?

Yeah, it's changing considerably every week.

Some runs are like that, but rare. The last one was the July/August 08 run.
Most runs are more rigid with only one or two changes a week that reflect breaking news.

Your FIRST song at NR???? After all the songs you've written?
What have they been thinking???

View original

I'd imagine they've been thinking other songs were funnier. They gave in eventually Between this and last week have broken my duck of sketches in TS and songs in NR so making progress

Yup, lots more requests this week, and not getting in the first week doesn't mean a long wait. Also getting something in means not sure it'll be back the next week

Woo hoo! Thanks Mikey. I sent in my first two (co-written) sketches this week and they used one. Beginners luck no doubt.

Well done to you though, an impressive number every week from what I've seen, and to Robin and anyone else from here.

Can I give up the day job now?

Jx

Well done Jane (and other)!

Where's Sooty's stuff gone? It used to just be forty sketches a week by him...

Dan

I haven't tried this in ages. Is the address still submissions@newsrevue.com with a Tuesday deadline?

Thanks

Send a sketch to that adress and ask for the current directors email.

Last 2 weeks? Going to pretty difficult.

And Swertyd got busy at work and had to choose between 118 and NR. 118 paid more.

Then got stuck into a couple of new projects (1 worked the Exeter radio thingy) others on hold.

May have another go but looks like competition is tougher than ever.

Woo hoo! Thanks Mikey. I sent in my first two (co-written) sketches this week and they used one. Beginners luck no doubt.

Well done. I think it's more on merit rather than luck.

Well done to you though, an impressive number every week from what I've seen, and to Robin and anyone else from here.

Now THAT must be luck. It's certainly NOT merit.

I've been most fortunate to have at least one sketch or song in every week since I started submitting to them last July.

Can I give up the day job now?

You won't be saying that when you get the pay cheque.

And Beelzebozo.
YES! It's still the same email.

And sootyj.
You need to make your comeback.
The show must miss your raw edginess.

There's a pay cheque? Think I'll frame it instead. Getting paid anything for goofing off is a result, as far as I'm concerned!

Jx

Well done Jane, adding to your hit rate! I think I scanned my first cheque!

Sooty, I'd always assumed you could knock out about 10 top sketches in barely more minutes (and a couple of experimental ones too). Anyhoo, sure your style still fits the bill for punchy topicality, even if you don't have the time for total domination

Well I fired a few off today, did send some a month or so ago but no luck.

I imagine it's too late. You may as well send it in though. You never know.
