I enjoyed this. nice to meet a few other writers and to hear mine and other folks stuff read out.
Thanks to Simon and Declan for sorting it, and to Declan for leaving early
I'd be up for it as a regular thing, even at £5 per pint! Crits seemed fair and the atmos was supportive.

I thought the scripts were going to be picked randomly on the night?
I think they were picked randomly before the night to give the actors a day or two to look at them so they had a fair chance. To be honest there were not a lot of people there who had submitted so I don't know how many there were to choose from.

I'd appreciate any comments on my sitcom 'The Museum'
It was 20 pages lifted from a 60 page first draft.
The idea is to develop the character of Jason to be the protagonist -- a high flying web developer from the city plonked into a sleepy seaside Museum stuck in the past. He had to leave his job for some mysterious reason perhaps.
It's a 'fish out of water' scenario I suppose with a dysfunctional family of strange characters.
Anyone who was there, your comments would be very welcome.
I'll PM you with my recollection of the comments around the table unless Si/Dec have something more comprehensive to offer?
