The Radio 4 Commissioning Round Page 2

Talking about this stuff feels way too jinxy - if indeed "jinxy" is a word - for me at the moment.

Thanks all for the advice. If anyone knows the answer to the original question, let me know.

The deadline for submissions is the 1st of October. Is that any help?

Give them a call and ask them. You won't need to quote the freedom of information act.

You should know all this info from the Prod Co. How can you do a deal with people if they won't tell you what the deal is? It's madness I tell you!

Tits.

Thanks Dolly.

Tits.

Thanks Dolly.

:O Not this subject again!

Oh...... Laughing out loud

The Commission Round is every 6 months in this particular case, that's what I was told.

The forthcoming one, indeed, is in October.

If you don't get your script in this Round, you'll then have to wait until April... of course, that's if the ProdCo will submit it then.

You've got my sympathies Mark - presumably the ProdCo you mention is whittling down radio sitcom scripts to a few that it's prepared to pitch to R4. A situation I'm in too...

That's the one, Doctor. Still, anything but "no" is good news...

good luck mark. and voley

Well done.

I've also got something put forward too.

Well done the Doctor and Dolly.

Does it help to have a name beginning with D?

Fingers etc all crossed.

:)

Ahem...

How did you get on Mark?

G'luck to Dolly and Voley. Not sure if Mark's saying he's in or not, but if he is, good luck also. I wonder how many things they commission at each round?
