There! See, Marc P? Everything ending amicably. If I succumbed to your mendacious blandishments to "Say more" who knows how things would have gone. It doesn't have to be like that.

Are you trying to tell us something, Marc? Not that there's anything wrong with that type of thing.

BB who's sussing out what??????? A sitcom episode is half an hour long, With ads or without.###########
Marc, the comp will suss out the serious writers. It is easyish to write 15 mins but not easyish to carry on with a couple of more episodes. As I keep saying, story lines are the hardest to come up with, the funnies...ie...the dialogue/comedy lines after that are easy....or easyish

BB.. Seriosuly suss out serious writers????? Please. The BBC writersroom come up enough with this shit. What about good writers. Never mind the passion. Never mind the living and breathing and you have stories you absolutely have to tell, for goodness sake... it's the telling that counts, drama, comedy .. whatever. How dare anyone call you not a serious writer!

Hang on now, that was the other way round. 
She was gorgeous when young. I have fond memories of her in a bath in the excellent heist film, The League of Gentlemen.
