You did send it to the right address and we have it. Sorry you didn't get an automated reply. We've had over 800 entries (and counting) so the system may be overwhelmed.

I know I am.

Reading scripts is a bit like channel hopping. You know pretty quickly whether you like something or not.

I am going to, have written a different episode from the same general premise as last year, but changed it slightly and have co-written this one with a writer friend of mine. Are you having a stab?

Yes. More than one stab.

Blimey!

I won't send the other in then! You don't need yet another crap sitcom to hit your inbox!

I've just sent my script off (Life And Life Only).

I sent it 800 times, I cleverly worked out that this would give me a 50% chance of getting chosen (I think that's how it works?)

Anyway, get back to the grindstone or you'll never get through 800 of 'em ;)

I suspect next year it'll be one-entry one-person.

So Chip why did you cancel your holiday to Amsterdam's red light district?

Blody EU eh?

Just submitted my two - waiting for confirmation with baited breath.

I have posted them in the critique section. I would love to hear what anyone has to say about them.

I had to send in corrected drafts after my first submission as I saw a mistake when posting. I hope they don't mind!
