For all you budding screenwriters out there, the scripts of series 6 are now up on my website #Unforgotten.

[charlotte ashton @womblewombat]

Great advice from Sophie Mitchell. And she knows her onions.

[Sophie A Mitchell @SophieAMitch]

My advice for newer writers right now is either A) go on an adventure, write spec TV & let the industry settle, or B) write for audio; it really is a new & exciting frontier where your imagination can run free. #audiodrama #radiodrama
