The Show What You Wrote

The hilarious BBC radio comedy show where every sketch has been written by the public.

The complete series of the ground-breaking comedy series, which called for submissions from members of the public. With over 12,000 sketches sent in from 1,500 different people, The Show What You Wrote spans such diverse comedy topics as Crime & Thriller, Kitchen Sink, Body & Soul, and "Geography", and features sketches about heaven's unexpectedly strict dress code, the Shopping Forecast, the grammar police, and some very literal highwaymen.

Starring John Thomson (The Fast Show, Cold Feet), Jason Manford (8 Out Of 10 Cats, QI), and Janice Connolly (Phoenix Nights, Coronation Street) and enjoying special appearances from Gyles Brandreth, Chris Addison, Shobna Gulati, Ben Crompton and Rob Rouse, among others, this brilliant sketch series will never let you look at rock-climbing, night-clubbing, or post-apocalypse dating the same way again...
