A further question on this same subject. If one of my characters exits the room but then says something to another character telepathically would it be written like this:
Character (O.O.V)
(TELEPATHICALLY) I heard you say that.

Telepathy in a script? Page 2
I'd make use of VOICEOVER in this case, though the onus is probably on the 'hearing' actor's reaction for a laugh in this case.

Well you can put (D) before dialogue in a radio script to indicate that it is distorted in some way (e.g. coming over a tannoy or other end of a phone). You could do that and explain that "(D) = distorted to sound like telepathy". That way it's the producer's problem to work out how to do it
