British Comedy Guide

List of Production Companies

Following my slightly illiterate previous post let's try again:

I once found on the BBC website, somewhere near the writers room, a downloadable PDF which listed all the production companies who produced comedy for Radio 4.

Does anyone have a copy of this, or does anyone know where abouts it lives now, because I'm buggered if I can find it.

Thanks for any help

I remember that - a better idea is to find shows that are most similar to yours (esp. in genre) and then send your stuff to the production companies that made those shows. But in answer to your original question, I don't have the link any more, soz.

Boing

right, I'll take that as a big fat 'no' then shall I?

I don't know where you found it, but I'd love to get a copy if it ever turns up.

Tried actually *looking* for it - took about 30 seconds, astonishingly - if this is what you're looking for:

I spent an age looking for it the other day.

Well done you.

Looked at your profile James. Did you do your NCTJ in Cornwall?

I did indeed. Spent a fortune moving down here because the course was quite cheap. Am now destitute. That's what they call a false economy!

It's a good course. Cornwall is lovely. Camborne/Redruth is a shit-hole, clearly. Too expensive to live here though. It's a joke. Cost of living 20% higher than the average and wages 20% lower. Hardly any jobs around. *Gnashes teeth*
