Every so often BBC Writersroom accepts unsolicited scripts. They are read blind (without names attached) so it’s an equal opportunity – your idea and writing ability will be judged alongside scripts submitted by experienced authors. The next window opens tomorrow Friday 9th December 2016 at 10am and stays open for a month until Monday 9th January 2017 at 5pm.
You can submit:
-
1 drama script of at least 30 minutes / pages in length for TV, Film, Radio, Stage or Online (If you are submitting a sample script for Children’s TV or Online, you can submit 2 x 15 min episodes)
-
A brief biography of your writing career
-
If you are submitting an episode script for a series/serial, you should also attach a brief outline (1-3 pages) of further episodes and the series/serial as a whole.
A very informative post. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you found it useful Henrietta

Writersroom are accepting unsolicited scripts. Thanks to Bridget Whelan for this information.
Initiated an instant re-working of a script/idea long languishing. Just the spur I needed and the first creative new work for many moons.
Love that when it happens – more power to your writing hand!

I really admire the way Britain nurtures its writers. We’re on our own in the US.
Thanks for coming by – I suspect British writers don’t feel that we are nutured, but perhaps we should.
One of the old Hollywood movie moguls called writers a necessary evil. 😃
