Coming out of hibernation

Apologies to anyone that reads my little blog, I hope you’re not all members of my immediate family! I haven’t been at the BBC for the last couple of weeks as I’ve been tied up at uni with my FINAL show – scary, but it means I get to watch Rikki Lake more often. Everything went really well and we haven’t been expelled yet so I don’t think anyone minded the odd rude word.
On Monday night, I went to the Comedy Store for the screenings of two new BBC Three pilots. It was a great evening, and fab to finally see the programmes I’d heard so much about since I started here. Apparently my fog-horn laugh was heard all over the club, but it wasn’t just because of the free drinks. The pilots were really funny and looked great and I’m always a sucker for a few well-placed swear words. I have to admit I was a bit jealous though, so I’m even more inspired to get on with my new script.
Things are going really well and its so nice to know that uni is finally over and I can concentrate totally on my writing - that’s if I can resist the beer-gardens. Summer in Manchester is a very bizarre occurrence. I feel like the Blue Peter tortoise being taken out of his cardboard box for the first time in months, but you can keep the lettuce, I’m only interested in cocktails.
