The Show What You Wrote Page 30

I hear my rewrite got into yesterdays show. :D
I haven't received any e mail yet, but someone who went to the show told me.

I thought I heard your name in the credits - which sketch was yours?

Well done Steve :)

Hello, did anyone who saw the show yesterday make a note of the sketches?

Well I didn't take written notes, but my memory's not entirely useless (just mostly). Anything in particular you wanted to know?

Hello - I'm pretty sure mine wasn't on there but it was called 'listen with mother' and was about a mother listening to a news report about a murderer...who might be her son (I know - it doesn't sound funny in the slightest Errr ).

I hope yours did get on Mr Sunshine

IIRC the only one even vaguely similar to this was the mother being told (by police on her doorstep) that her missing son had been found with all his major organs removed.

I'd guess that it's not yours.

Hello - No, that's not mine, but thanks very much anyway! :D

Unlikely you would have got on as you didn't get a reply, Bonzo. They get too many to reject everyone personally-it's like Take Hart all over again...

Um, you mean I shouldn't expect to hear back from Tony now? That 17th-century French lady in a wig took me WEEKS (and three purple felt pens. It was a big frock.).

This is almost as upsetting as when I learnt that 'runner up' does not mean 'everyone who entered'. I thought those Blue Peter first-day covers of an OldEnglish Sheepdog were in the bag...

You could post it to Showcase.

I know it was bank holiday, so the schedule may be different this week, but has anyone had any emails regarding this week's recording script yet?

Nope nothing, but unless they've changed my documentary sketch about the 1994 krypton factor final into an historical sketch, I wasn't expecting anything this week...

I did write some history one liners but I take it they're not being used

Yes, a number of us wrote bits and they never replied. We just have to get over it.

As in, the series as a whole isn't using one liners. I wasn't griping that they hadn't used mine specifically

I've not been to a recording but I've been told by those who have that no one-liners were being used. I guess it means they had more room for sketches.

It is odd that no-one seems to have got an e-mail for Sunday's show. Ah well let's hope that like Steve Sunshine last week no news is good news for some of us.
