I have just managed to listen to last weeks show and congrats and well done to all who participated. I especially liked the "Death to the West Highland Terrier" Sketch.
Keep it up.

That really was a brilliant sketch, much better than 10 O'Clock Live's sketch on the same story.
3 off for me. Worked harder on them than last week so the rejection will hurt that much more!
I'm having regrets about the punch line of one of the sketches I submitted. I changed it at the last minute - but with hindsight I think the original ending was stronger.
Oh well - it's time to focus on one-liners.

Radio Rejects is another potential outlet.

(I think a show is planned for early March - can anyone confirm?)

Wasn't there an Adele Brit awards sketch at the end of episode one?

JK Rowling from me as well, did anyone else do the whole 'Adult' Harry Potter with porn puns of Harry Potter titles?
I also wrote a the church does not own marriage sketch and RBS losses sketch around an interview with Goodwin.
Certainly the best sketches I've written so far I'm just worried that my sketches don't with a bang, but more a damp squibb...
I'm in with one sketch this week; I've gone with slavery.

Should I take it you used "adult" puns with JK?

Kind of. It was an interview where Justin explains why he thought the Harry Potter storylines were metaphors for porn. It ended with a real groaner of a pun.
