Valentine's Day Sketch Success

For Valentine's Day we offered the opportunity to our Comedy Room writer development group to pitch sketch ideas for the BBC's Social Media accounts. 3 sketches were made and have achieved over half a million views on Facebook alone.

For Valentine's Day this year we teamed up with BBC Comedy and asked the writers who have been part of our Comedy Room writer development group to pitch scripts for short sketches for BBC Social Media.

Three of the scripts went on to be made and published across BBC Social Media accounts including BBC Comedy, BBC OneBBC Two and BBC. Between them they have gained over 500,000 views on Facebook alone so far.

Have a watch of all 3 below (from Twitter) or follow these links to watch on Facebook.
