Quote of the Day from screenwriter Richard Curtis

[Amy Harrison @HarrisonAmy]

What's the longest you've pushed the time limit when someone's told you: "No rush..."?

[Michael Spicer @MrMichaelSpicer]

I’m always impressed when a journalist can listen to me waffling for sixty minutes without making a point and then turn it into an article.

A little over a year ago we made a short that asked "what if you could have two more minutes with someone you lost?"

In many ways, it's changed my life.

Today it's live on Omeleto's YouTube channel. If you haven't seen it, give it a watch? If you've seen it and it resonated, give it a share?

GRANGE HILL: "Slip on the wet floor, did you?" Phil Redmond's hard-hitting school drama didn't pull its punches. In a 'they did things differently back then' scene from 1981, hard but fair P.E. teacher 'Bullet' Baxter doles out justice to a colleague who's been bullying kids.

I would love to see this made and have backed the project. Anyone else want to bring to life the script that the BBC called “Genius”? https://t.co/QnR3DlaGnt

Celebrating with leftover Easter Egg. Oh yes.

"Facing Up stands out for its sharply observed writing, distinct character voices, and expertly paced escalation, turning everyday relationship breakdown into something hilariously uncomfortable and painfully real. With a clear series engine and a pilot that constantly raises the stakes, it delivers a compelling blend of dark comedy and emotional truth that lingers well beyond the final scene."

[BBC Writers @bbcwritersroom]
