Gazzooks! I wish I'd have known that.
Did you listen to the last series?
I sure did. They were mostly about answerphone messages, phones, social networking sites, emails, gaming, that kind of thing.
Quote: Chris Forshaw @ November 5 2009, 9:43 PM GMTMy feedback doesn't make sense as far as I can tell.
"Nice quickie. Worth giving it a while, I think. Got any more like
this?!"The hell does that mean? Either way it sounds quite positive so
I would guess from that response that they might consider turning it into a runner for an episode if you have a couple more like it.
F/X: Car screeching to a halt / needle scratching off a record
Just got an 'apologies for taking so long to get back to you' email.
I've got a "Very nice" sketch on the consideration pile and a "very funny but lose the punchline" re-write request.
Woo!

Curse those pesky punchlines, ruining a perfectly good joke!
In fairness, it did derail a perfectly good joke, I was just stumped for an 'out' and bunged on a punchline so I could send it in on time.
Just got my feedback yesterday. Useful, and I'll incoroprate the changes and send in the revised sketches next week. This isn't a very interesting post.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha!

As usual, quoting from old stats. You're sixteenth since Walker mentioned 'his old friend Paul Sinha' again in the Jim Jeffries thread.

Ah I see. I'd best have a think then.
Cheers 
So, basically, I'm the only one who didn't get past the initial sift?
