Very proud to say my sketch made it into last night's recording of @DMsAreOpenBBC at @UTCComedyclub! Last year, I shared some observations to help fellow writers get their work picked - it was very warmly received so I thought I'd do the same again today!

That's a wrap on shooting Swan Song!
What a special final day. We created an entire party complete with string quartet and our cast gave it their all with some stunning performances both on and off the cello. Plus we made a fake train station!
I can't wait to get editing!

I'm a little bit chuffed, guys.

Queer friends! I'm writing an essay about queer representation in TV for my masters. Which shows do you think have good and bad examples? We're talking bigotry, stereotyping, queer baiting/coding, fetishising, to the show where you finally felt seen, and anything in between
