I emailed them just to double-check and the new date (March 12) was confirmed by one of their staff.

Some of it is and some of it isn't!
All the best for your entry as well.
Quote: Mikey Jackson @ February 23 2010, 6:07 PM GMTHave you seen the app form. It wants referees of high standing and everything. Eh?
The referees are optional.

I've put Aaron and Mark as my referees. I suggest you all do the same.
Just read the form thingy and you have to be from the UK. Maybe that can be my disability, the fact that I don't qualify for it....

Do they mean live in or from the UK?
Wondering if all scripts actually get read or whether some will be thrown out based purely on the treatment and answers to the additional information questions.

Well, I sent my script the other day, and they do send you an email back letting you know they received it. So at least you know they have it.
Still working on mine, just about to give it a fairly hefty rewrite.
All I want is someone to actually read the script and not go thanks but no thanks, based off a treatment that doesn't have all the funny in it.
Another script deadline extension (now Monday March 22nd) - http://www.ctbf.co.uk/johnbrabourneawards/sponsorshippartners.html
Why the hell do they keep doing that? A deadline should be a deadline.
Perhaps not enough people have responded.
Which is a shame because if I'm the only person who responds then I'd win.
I know this is probably a very stupid question, but when it comes to the application form it says it must be word processed which means typed, but surely it would be so much easier to print off and fill out by hand? Purely cos all the .........s are really annoying and I can't be arsed removing them and typing. Do you think it matters?
