New Open Door Comedy Sketch Show

Hm. Still not quite sure about that title.

Does it entice? Does it scream "Click upon me, for I have information about how to get your sketches read at the BBC," or does it merely look like six words slapped haphazardly together? Aged Fish Rake Brain Pike Whiplash, sort of thing?

Well, you're here now and that's the main thing.

We don't ordinarily read sketches here at the writersroom. But for the next week or so, that's changing.

7 on 7 is a new topical sketch comedy show which will appear on BBC Radio 7 in the near future, and they're looking for new writers.

To get under consideration for the show, you need to email us three comedy sketches for radio, at least two of which should be topical comedy.

We've got a page detailing exactly what 7 on 7 are looking for and how to send it in, and an interview with Sanjeev Kohli and Gareth Edwards all about writing sketch comedy.

The deadline is 27th February, so you need to get cracking.

Go on. Write something funny.
