I've written a children's drama called My Mother, The Psycopathic Poison!
Question: I've written a children's drama called My Mother, The Psycopathic Poisoner!. Would the BBC be interested
It's a really sweet and heart-warming tale of a boy called Danny who begins to realise that his mother is putting AJAX in his ready-brek - so he has to call on his friends (mostly animals) to be tasters for him!. It has a few poignant kleenex moments as his friends drop dead one by one - but the happy ending makes up for this as his mother gets dragged from the house in a straight-jacket!.
Does anyone know who commissions children's drama at the BBC!? Should I get an agent first, or just send it in!?
All advice appreciated :-)Www@Enter-QA@Com

there has been shows like that written before, perhaps get it published first in a book format, see how it sells, then offer it at film festival get some creditals behind the book first then offer it to BBC!. that way you will look credible!. the writter of harry potter wrote a book first then it turned into a movie!. most movies come from novels first!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Sorry Mrs M - someone else already wrote a similar story - only the names have been changed to protect the innocent - I've read it - it's a sorry tale - very poignantWww@Enter-QA@Com

Best to send it to cebeebies, which is BBC programming for the under fives!. Sounds perfect for them!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I would get an agent first so the idea will be strickly yours and you have proof of that!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

At long last something a bit livelier than that toothless, sexless LaaLaa with its featureless landscape and permanent sunshine, not to mention he other sweet, charming, helpful, politically correct milksop innocents such as Postman Pat and Bob the Builder who have been teaching the next generations how to be obediently productive members of the capitalist society and whom email and the credit crunch are making redundant!.
For today's Britain, we need more characters of the type that gave older generations true grit!. Anyone remember Noddy aiding and abetting police brutality by helping Mr Plod use inappropriate physical force to arrest the goblins!? Bill and Ben didn’t speak English and lived in the garden in a shed – obviously illegal immigrants!. Andy Pandy shacked up in a cardboard box with his girlfriend and Sooty and Sweep had a rather unnatural relationship with their owner!.
Back to basics, Ms Minger!. More power to your elbow!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
