Final Draft Formatting Query

Anyone know much about Final Draft?

I'm trying to format a radio sitcom along the lines of the scripts on BBC Writers Room. The radio scripts seem to have the character name on the same line as the first line of dialogue.

Does anyone know of an FD template that has this formatting or how to alter this aspect within Final Draft?

Any help would be appreciated.

Not final draft, but MS Word XP or 2003, you can use my gift copy of The Scriptwriters Toolkit.

I don't think USA script formatters like Final Draft or Movie Magic can cope with the character name on the same line as the dialogue.

Thanks Billwill. I think we've cracked it now.
