Me too. Or post a link. Writers Room has plays, but no sketches.

No, I use use normal word as SS messes about with format when you try and copy and paste into an email body. I send both attachment and text in the email for each sketch.

If it's really, really short, I just send it in the body of the email. I'd feel a tit attaching a document that was only a line or so long.
Maybe I should though, who knows.

For what it's worth, I think you should. As far as I know, I think they print it out and that goes directly into the 'script' for the week's show. The less they have to mess with your stuff, the higher the chance you have of getting stuff on, even if it's just a one-liner.

I sent mine as a PDF in standard Celtx formatting. Oh well at least I have an excuse when it's not used!

I sent in one sketch, my Apprentice one if you remember that, and did that as a ScriptSmart radio sketch.
I also sent in 5 spoof headlines. I did these as a ScriptSmart radio sketch with the headlines listed down the side of the page.
I didn't attach into the body of the email.
I say, always follow the submission guidelines. Even if you feel like a tit.

n.b. be warned they only want 3 headlines.
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

I read on the BBC website that they wanted a maximum of 5.
I doubt they'll crucify me for it.

Phwoar.
Can you forward it my way?
This whole time I thought Tilt was on Fridays.
In fact I will probably forget again that it isn't. I need a nursemaid.
