CBBC Competition 5:48pm on 11 Jul 2009 I appreciate that people are frustrated, but essentially the most important thing is to contact those who were successful - I have no doubt someone will one day fire out a mass email that says 'thanks but no thanks'.

It's the same let down for everyone who entered, regardless of if you're 45, 105, or 15. Everyone put in the effort and everyone was secretly hoping this would be the one that broke them through. For a few people it was; for the rest it wasn't. I for one wrote a script that I'm gloriously proud of in two days and the only reason I could achieve that is because of the impending deadline. Teaching myself that I could indeed write on demand, as if it were a profession and not a love affair where I had to be 'in the mood', is worth more than winning anything at this stage in my career.

So yes. Now I've rambled. It meant a lot to everyone - let's all be frustrated together - but there's no point whining at the BBC because they don't care. I wouldn't care either, if I'd found those who I thought were the best writers.
CBBC Competition 12:59pm on 04 Jul 2009 Well here's hoping that at the very least it arrived in time!

Everything is crossed, good luck to the other 699 or so people!
