Hi all

Have finally got round to posting on this marvellous website.

I've been looking around the web for a few years to find a website like this. Very informative it is.

I'm just another budding writer but also someone who finds it difficult to even stay focused and write anything down.

I suppose I'm looking for some advice and tips on the usual steps of getting started.

Best I've ever achieved is writing my own versions of my faveourite comedy - Only Fools. That was a fun way of getting started. I began my interest at around age 16. Ten years on and I'm still not making a great deal of progress.

I have that burning desire to write despite not sitting down for any longer than 20 minutes (at a time) to be staring at only a suggested title.

Anyway, I look forward to discussing many things with you all.

Cheers,

Griff

Hi Griff, welcome to the site.

Cheers.

Welcome aboard.

Resisting temptation to say "Rock on, Tommy."

Damn.

Haha. Go ahead.

I suppose you like John Sullivan's stuff.

Yes.

Just Good Friends/Citizen Smith/OFAH etc.

I think The Green Green Grass would have been a bigger hit if he'd written it in the 90s.

Although Boycie is my favourite secondary character from OFAH I think The Green Green Grass is by far inferior to its mothership show. Unfortunately.

I haven't seen Dear John yet. I'm very curious to check it out.

I rate Dear John.... higher than OFAH. See it as soon as you can.

Welcome Tommy

Hi Will!

I was extremely gutted to understand (with confirmation) that John Sullivan had written a further Christmas special - Del's 65th Birthday would have been the main storyline.

This had been a rumour for a while, where Sir David Jason himself confirmed.

:-( I know the last 3 specials were far off the standard most of us expect for OFAH, but it would still have been bloody brilliant to see it back again!
