Channel 4 Submissions - Pay to Play ? Page 3

Looks interesting because from my naive position it looks like C4 may be the outlet and of course you can't get to them through Writers Room (can you?).

If it's JUST £49 and they don't keep suggesting extras it sounds quite reasonable to me.

Sadly it looks like the extras kick in pretty quick.
If you want to actually talk to someone it costs £145 for a "one-on-one" session with their "media-experts".
Sounds like a script/idea reading service with an initial membership fee to keep the real bozo's out.

Just to reiterate that we're not going down the £49 subscription fee route. This was our original thinking, back in the day, but that's not the case any more.

And in terms of this being a script-reading service, then we're not really in that zone either. This is more about exploring the commercial potential contained within the essence of an idea - i.e. would a broadcaster/publisher be interested in this content. Kind of R&D, if you like...
