I have received four “full reads” for my submissions to Writersroom. Below is some of the feedback for my work sent to production companies:
Bad Language(45-minute screenplay) – “There’s a finesse and polish to the writing here that suggests a writer who is continuing to hone his craft. Prose is blocked affectively and there’s a sense of flow to the plotting of the piece. It has an appealing rhythm and the characters are delineated neatly.” BBC Writersroom feedback (22nd July 2010).
The Garden – (30-minute screenplay) – “With more than a hint of magic realism, this is a visually imaginative piece that wears its heart on its sleeve.” BBC Writersroomfeedback (22nd October 2008).
Unfinished Business (30-minute screenplay) – “It’s a great script with really well-defined characters, great dialogue and a lovely twist at the end. I’m sure it’ll prove a great success for you.” Huw Kennair-Jones, Commissioning Executive, Sky One Drama. February 6th 2008).
“I enjoyed reading it. You have a good ear for dialogue.” – Lib Murray, Assistant Script Development Editor, Lime Pictures, 26th July 2007, preceding Hollyoaks trial.
