Newsjack Series 18 Page 10

Sent in oneliners but only came up with a sketch (winter Olymips related) this morning! No use at all! Hopefully it will still be relevant next week. Good luck to all.

Do we have any comedy spies going to the recording tonight?

Hey everyone, instead of sitting around anxiously wondering if you're material is being performed, take a look at this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/comedywriting/comments/4uoicb/writing_comedy_is_hard_but_why_its_worth_learning/?st=JDNIN6KR&sh=32dbea7e

Just found on Reddit and it's a nice read. Hope it helps.

Thanks @Thosisd, well worth the read.

It's that time again - all the best everyone. Hope the hard work pays off.

We just got the "almost" email. Good luck everyone.

Yippee. Got my first positive email. No idea what for but it's a start.

Nothing for me. Extra disappointing this week as I felt I had something above my usual standard.

Congrats to you guys. Nice work!

Well done JohnfromSoho, hope this is first of many.
Hard luck Bonzo, enviable broadcast-or-recorded strike rate.

Same...but I did get a spam email about discount trainers which was nice.

could someone light the fire in the rejects cave please, I'll be over in a bit.

Nothing again. Damn, they're a hard bunch to please.

I'll be posting them on Twitter under #newsjackrejects if anyone wants to join me.

Well done or commiserations to all, as appropriate.

No email here. Again. Time to give up I think. (I've posted my one liners in the critique forum, for what it's worth)

So itwas a one liner about Dippy the Dinosaur but they missed me off the credits. Ho Hum

Well done to everyone who got something on it came close.

I was more confident than usual but still below par might head over to the critique section and you pros can tell me where I'm going wrong.

Any good advice from reg contributors any topics to stay away from?

Thanks and good luck next week everyone

You must be cheesed off being consistently sooo close!
I sent in a cracking sketch and a great one liner - which have got nowhere but I bet are as good as some that make the edit.
