comedy writing

 
 

Since 2020 I have been writing comedy for various BBC Radio 4 shows whilst also developing my own sitcom and comedy drama projects and completed a Masters Degree in Comedy Writing with Distinction at Falmouth University.

 

Nature Table

In September 2022 I was a commissioned writer on Series 3 of Sue Perkins’ Nature Table - a comedy 'Show & Tell' series celebrating the natural world and all its funny eccentricities. As a massive fan of the show it was a real honour to be part of the writing team, contributing a wedge of funny one-liners that helped structure the script and being in the writer’s room across the six recordings.

 

The Skewer

I have written on series 5,6,7&8 and been a commissioned writer on series 9 & 10 of Jon Holmes’s The Skewer, a haunting mixtape of satirical news and culture, twisted into a multi-award winning comedy audio abyss.

 

Dead Ringers

I was a writer on series 23 of the BBC’s popular long-running satirical sketch show Dead Ringers , performed by John Culshaw and Jan Ravens.

 

Best Medicine

I am a commissioned writer on medical comedy panel show Best Medicine, series 1 & 2, helping write the script for comedian Kiri Pritchard-McClean and her guests.

 

The Naked Week

I was a writer on the brand new comedy pilot for BBC Radio 4’s The Naked Week hosted by Andrew Hunter Murray - a comic look at how the media reports the news.

Breaking the News

I also write for Breaking the News, BBC Scotland’s topical comedy panel show that breaks the news and puts it back together with the help of Des Clarke and a talented panel of comedians.

 

Newsjack

I got my first broadcast credit on the last episode of BBC Radio 4’s NewsJack, a topical comedy show that attempts to make sense of the news using sketches and one-liners.

 

Female Pilot Club

I was delighted to be shortlisted for the 2024 Female Pilot Club Sitcom award for Supreme Gentlemen, my comedy about a deranged incel group.

 

Stop Trying to Make Sketch Happen

In December 2022 I had a sketch performed at this prestigious comedy night curated by Holly Hall.

 

Seriously Sketchy

I co-founded, wrote and produced Seriously Sketchy a comedy ‘sketch letter’ with Serious Face productions to make and send comedy sketches of talented writers to the inbox of commissioners, producers and comedy industry bigwigs.

 

…and then some

I am always working on several scripted projects as well as tinkering with media e.g. bringing back TOTP2 for a new audience…behold: TOTP3 (the comedy writer’s edit).
