“The response has been amazing. People can’t get enough of this fresh new comedy. We have been featured in Metro Newspaper and The Voice, had interviews with BBC Five Live, BBC London and BBC Scotland and on hundreds of websites and blogs. After 5years of pitching this show to TV networks I never gave up on my dream andit is overwhelming to see how much of a household name the show has become.

Wasn’t this supposed to be coming on terrestrial, like channel 4 or bbc3 or sitt’n?
I know BBC3 isn’t terrestrial by the way
No. But the BBC expressed some interest after the episodes aired online and there was a meeting with executives.
Oh ok thanks for clearing that up.
Well good luck to them with their creative marketing and outreach projects. The show is very funny and well written. It just goes to show that you don’t need to sit around waiting for people to help you – you just need to help yourself.
