Sad Times.
How's The Pro Curcit coming along? I fully expect for you to have a DVD in the bargin-bin at One Stop by the end of the year, need something to give to Nan for christmas.

Not pro circuit yet dude. Still got to get on the books. It's all open mics still atm with offers of paid gigs.
We shall see. I've got a few ideas up my sleeve too. If my sitcom comes into play I'll base a character off you.

just people that could give you some advice.

Ah', cool, I donno how it works really, I'll be up for doing a bit of acting though if it does all come off.
I guess most of it is a matter of getting the right contacts and being seen in the right places, can't be easy to make a living out of it.

But saying that, if those fucking awful fat birds can get a show comisioned on BBC3, like Katie Brand, then it shows it ain't impossible. God, she's fucking awful, I don't think she's ever raised a smile from me.

don't believe it
it's fucking difficult. I've been trying for ages (sitcom not a talk show)

fucking hell is everyone I know trying to write a sit com.

people think it's easy
it really really isn't :(

Yeah I know, I've read some of my friends scripts.
and seen some of their pilots, being good on paper is hard enough but then putting it on screen...

indeed
there is no way I would ever even try and film so much as a scene as a sample. I'm alright at writing and I've been told it's quite funny (wrote two different ones) but it's a monster to get into

I guess the trouble is, anyone with a Youtube account and a webcam thinks they can hit the big screen.
I just don't get how Katy Brand got her show, she must be seriously good at noshing off nob.

you need to remember that that sort of thing is aimed at the average person
and the average person is thick as fuck

look how well Gavin and Stacey has done. It's fucking dire.

Gavin and Stacey
depresses me. It makes me want to write stuff that is warm and cuddly and utter utter shit just so I have a chance
