Scribbles here again! Just a heads-up in case anybody else fancies giving writing funnies for R4 & R4 extra a go - Newsjack's back next week for topical comedy sketches & one-liners http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00kvs8r and there's a new, non-topical sketch show coming in the summer that will be using material by new, unsolicited writers http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00kvs8r/features/the-show-what-you-wrote
I'm going to be submitting material for both, and if you do fancy doing some radio comedy yourself I can't recommend it enough. Newsjack's produced by JF's Souvenir Programme producer, who is a really lovely guy, added to which I'm going to stick my neck out & assume most people here are female - They are very receptive to female writers. Only about 1 in 10 submissions last series were from female writers & it's a balance they want to redress.
