I've had a sitcom script rejected by the BBC. Maybe that's part of the problem.
Two of us wrote it, hundreds of hours of work plus you had to provide summaries for 5 more episodes. We thought it was pretty good and certainly head and shoulders above 'All About Me', and that got a second series FFS.

I've got an idea that I'm thinking of pitching to ITV. It's a reality show where the contestants (all young men with good Christian values) are made to have sex with a prostitute. It's called "I'm celibate, get me out of her".

Very cheap to make. Do it in a pub car park.

Not sure if you mean your sitcom. What was it about anyway? Mrs P watches a lot of telly, and if she comes across anything similar, can report back to you. A plagiarism suit might bring in a bit of money.

I'm not surprised. Many AoSers seem to find the idea of men dressing up as women intrinsically amusing.

BBC Radio 4 Extra has a lot of good old comedy.

Just been watching Porridge ... Still funny today surprisingly, as I doubt there is anything funny about prison.... Shows what a good script and to actors can do.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I think Ronnie Barker was an incredible actor. I always found it difficult when I saw Ronnie Barker interviewed to believe that he was Fletcher. Apparently a very shy man.
