Bearded Ladies' Writers

Bearded Ladies is being dusted off for BBC7, in the Tilt slot from Thursday.

Just interested as a lot of people around here got stuff on, I (perhaps erroneously) believe. Two things:

1) It would be interesting to know which sketches are from the BSG writing world if people are willing to own up and
2) Do you non-coms get repeat fees here? And how much (as a percentage I mean) of the original fee do you get for the repeat outings?

I understand that this is probably the first series so maybe no-one's on at this point and also understand that it's BBC7, so you might not get paid till this time next year.

Cheers

We got a contract through for this a few weeks back. It's a generic BBC7 contract, allowing the BBC to generally air any stuff of ours that they own on the channel in the future - and they sent it specifically because the 1st series of BL is going to be aired, and so presumably that's the first of our stuff that has been on BBC7.

You get a small percentage of the original rate, so we're talking a couple of quid a minute or so. So I might struggle to buy a pint with my royalty cheque!

Cheers Bomber.

Matthew Stott has had a few sketches used on Bearded Ladies. And have the Slags or am I imagining things?

Not us, but I wish
