Thank you 🙏🏻
And well done to the readers as well. Getting through such a huge number of scripts can’t be easy

[Stephen Downs @Stephen_downs1]

Top 3% for @bbcwritersroom open call last year, top 10% this year.

Just have to keep plugging away. But at least seem to be somewhere in the vicinity of the right track

[Stephen Downs @Stephen_downs1]

@STVColin good to see someone call out the PM for refusing to answer the independence question. Would be good to see more people hold politicians to account instead of allowing them to avoid giving answers. Well played 👏🏻

[Stephen Downs @Stephen_downs1]

Over the moon with my email from @bbcwritersroom

After multiple attempts that fell at the first hurdle and a couple that fell after the first, I’m delighted to hear I made the long list this year. Looking forward to the report. Thanks for the opportunity @bbcwritersroom 🙌🏻
