Because you are a funny motherf**ker, obviously.

Luck is a fickle thing. I should really play the lottery.
Cheers guys, it's my 11th credit, and seeing as this is show number 101 I feel slightly more proud my stuff is in more than 10% of Newsjack's shows.

Well done DeathbyMonkey and Damian! Let us know afterwards which bits were yours!
Quote: V Riddoch @ 5th October 2017, 6:42 PMIf you find it fun, keep going! This really is a long game. I didn't get anything in the script (but was cut) until my third series. I got a sketch and a couple of one-liners in the fourth.
Then I met some lovely people from BCG at a recording (Hey, kids! Don't meet up with strangers from the internet!), whom I then went on to work on other projects with. Best of all I met the fabulous Bonzo; we've now been writing together for three years.
Keep looking around for other opportunities, like NewsRevue and the Treason Show; both are weekly, year-round shows so are great for practice.
For reasons of accuracy, I must just point out that V is by far the most fabulous part of the team!
But echo the above - look out for opportunities and keep going. A very successful writer once said that no writing is ever wasted -each joke / sketch / script will make your writing better.
Two more shows of Newsjack to go!
Nah, not even close
Well done you two!!
....onwards
Glad to hear there's some good news on here. Well done both!
And for the rest of us keep going, nothing to lose really by trying twice more this series. Onwards!
Congratulations Damian & deathbymonkey
Well done to everyone who got in, inspiration to us all. No e-mails for me.
Thanks guys. This is my fourth series of submitting jokes, and only now is it getting anywhere.
As Bonzo and StephenM say, persistence is key. And a weary sense of fatalism. That helps me soften the rejections.
