Press clippings
Wry accounts of a playwright's tribulations are never likely to be popular, especially when there is real hysteria and fear coiled into the repartee. But I am enjoying every minute of it. Charles Wood is a quirkily sardonic writer who is apparently trapped for the moment behind a thorny lattice made out of the loops and whirls of his own words.
Dennis Potter, The Sunday Times, 8th May 1977The first episode in a new six-part comedy series, Don't Forget to Write (BBC2) by Charles Wood, was about a scriptwriter's difficulty at first in sitting down, and second in getting down anything on paper which might pass for human speech.
