Writers Academy 18 7:46pm on 01 Oct 2009 but it weren't dialogue...

I'm glad you asked me that... as Piers said we'll be putting up a lot more information about how to write for CDS shows soon. The Writers Academy is certainly not the only way in.

@ MarcGW

Yes - very good point. It is worth pointing out that the Writers Academy course is not a beginners course, but rather for writers at an "intermediate " stage in their writing career.

@ Katyperryismymum

Great to hear when the system works!
Writers Academy 14 3:58pm on 13 Jul 2009 Two or three had made the workshop stage before. The rest hadn't got that far before.

I can tell you that just over a third of the shortlist had applied before.

... and others who've asked for personal feedback. It's not a question of BBC policy here. It's just not practical. We look at people's scripts in detail - three/four different people read them. The marks are just a guide, as the team reads each script and takes a view on the marks - so not just the highest end up going through, but the ones that are right for us. In the end you get through via a combination of several people's subjective reactions. It's not a question of "going wrong" and how can you do it right the next time.

Didn't do JK Rowling any harm...

2nd week I'd hope. Be these are all subject to various people's availabilties, as I'm sure you'll understand.
Writers Academy 12 12:48pm on 09 May 2009 @quiteJudith

Don't hold me to it, but I'm hoping for around the 20th - give or take a few days.
Writers Academy 11 3:23pm on 05 May 2009 @Antoniablue

No it wouldn't I'm afraid, as it's unpaid.

@lorddaffyduck

I'll discuss this in more detail on my next entry. We don't do it to be mean, but to make sure we're absolutely positive we've looked at everyone's entry carefully enough. I will make sure we let everyone know at the earliest opportunity. Cross my heart.
