This is a podcast that tracks us - Lucy Heath and Lauren Soley - on our journey to get a TV show Greenlit. From the sh*tty first draft, all the way to the inevitable BAFTA win, we will give an honest recount of the uphill struggle of trying to get a TV show - that doesn’t involve fitties in bikinis - actually on telly. As nepo-less creatives (not bitter) we’re doing this the old fashioned way; Facing our 100 ‘no’s’ before reaching that sweet golden chalice ‘yes’ (reference: Lady Gaga). Please join us on this wild ride, and ask us - and our far more knowledgable guests - any questions you have regarding writing and being a creative in the biz.
