Sitcom Mission 2010 audience

We're looking for 15 minute scripts with fresh, exciting characters and the potential to be made into a series.

All scripts are read 'blind' of any personal details. Once we've looked through all the scripts, we'll decide on our finalists and these will go to our live showcase later in 2025. At the showcase, actors will perform each script as a rehearsed reading in front of the audience, and industry professionals will judge the winner.

Previous winners have had their work seen by commissioners from every major UK broadcaster, as well as production companies that specialise in comedy such as Hat Trick, Endemol, Avalon, Tiger Aspect, Talkback, Roughcut, Baby Cow and DLT.

Meanwhile previous judges include: Lucy Lumsden (MD, Yellow Door Productions); Tilusha Ghelani (Comedy Commissioning Editor, Sky); Morwenna Gordon (Exec Producer for Comedy at Expectation); Tanya Quereshi (Head of Comedy, BBC); Shane Allen (Chief Commissioning Officer, Boffola - Am I Being Unreasonable?); Saskia Schuster (Head of Scripted, Fulwell 73 Productions); Andy Hamilton (Writer, Outnumbered).
