Quote: Yacob Wingnut @ February 25 2009, 3:54 PM GMTHmm, were they short sketches? I really don't know how it was worked out.(Impressive you got 5 recorded btw, though I assume the chance to submit to other shows would be a bigger deal to you than me complimenting you).
Three were long-ish sketches. If anyone remembers the show the squirells doing Question Time was mine and Micheal Eavis phoning Milli Vanilli asking them to do Glastonbury.
Hmm, well I don't know then. Would have thought they'd email you about submitting to 'Play & Record 2'.
But what do I know? (in case someone at the Beeb emails me and tells me off)
I was also shortlisted in the bbc radio witty & twisted thing a couple of years back.
Maybe it's because I can't spell squirrells.
Or maybe they just think I'm an unhinged liability.
Sounds like you've done well, so yes, bit of a pain. Don't know what their criteria was.
Ah well, you got something on Tilt. Very few people got anything on P + R2 and only 1 non-comm got Broken Arts. Now there's '7 on 7' and 'Watson's Wind-Up' to write for (and I've screwed up '7 on 7' by not sending them topical stuff).
Slightly off topic but Dolly, was it you that wrote for Angry Puppy?

I've probably put my foot in it somewhere along the line. I'm good at doing that.
Good luck with the other shows!

No alas. Was it a Comedy Unit thing?

Yes, I believe they were responsible.
I wouldn't worry too much about appearing (or not appearing) on lists, just try your luck with the many different producers and things will start to happen...

along as the stuff that happens isn't bankruptcy and a nervous breakdown.
