Now crossing fingers, toes, eyelashes etc I have something in Wednesday's show. Especially as I'm going to the recording!

Nice one buddy I can only wish for that kind of thing. congratulations mate.

I sent my one-liners off before I went to bed last night. I managed to write nine in total.

The jury's out tbh :)

Hello all,

I've tried writing for a couple of Newsjacks before with no success - but this is the year! Have sent in a few one liners as I missed the deadline for sketches.

Do you find out if you're in before the show or is it just a case of listening?

Thanks and good luck,
Jonathan

They'll drop you an email at around 5pm on the Thursday if they use any of your material Jon.

I've got one of those jokes which I like but I'm scared to send in, it's a iPhone/Steve Jobs joke - hmmm - I probably shouldn't submit it

F**king hell, I've sent them something!

Just in under the one-liners wire!

You look like a girl in that picture.

(I know about girls: I've seen pictures of them on the internet.)

If you don't send it, stick it in the Season 7 rejections thread DBM, I like a good bad-taste joke :)

FFS, send it in.

The worst they can do is not use it.

Or perhaps they'll say something about how awful it was on air, and how they couldn't believe that you actually sent it in.

And then they'll send the PC brigade round to shut your willy in the door.

Sent six one liners - cut the Steve Jobs one. Got in Michael Gove, Kate Middleton, Mitt Romney attacking Obama's supporters, Rat meat on sale in East London, The Innocence of Muslims and Richard the Third's bones. And I think they're all hilarious, which means they're going on my twitter feed straight after tomorrow.

That's comedic gem Jane Krakowski *swoons, but not in a feminine way*

I think I prefer her in your icon.
She looks like a right little cracker.

Actually, I think I preferred you when I thought that was a picture of you.
I bet you're not a right little cracker at all!

Yes but DbM has got form - that's why he's anxious!
