That outline is very clear and straightforward and nothing like the cheerleadery American ones I've been finding.<BR/><BR/>Plus, it's brilliant for me because I can just change "Blog!!!" to "Vlog!!!" and submit it for the project I'm about to pitch, which is about YouTubers interacting via their video diar - oh, bugger.Mike Boothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614823619400248086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10831518.post-62318855123896067252008-08-06T20:16:00.000+01:002008-08-06T20:16:00.000+01:00I think she does marry him, although I'm not entir...I think she does marry him, although I'm not entirely sure.

Apart from that thing about the guys who work in a lab. Which is truly terrible. Why would they commission rubbish like that? Even my 10 year old thinks that it's stupid.

My immediate first thought was OMG! HE IS COMING ON TO ME VIA THE INCREDIBLY ROUNDABOUT METHOD OF SITCOM SCRIPTWRITING!<BR/><BR/>Sadly this turned out not to be the case, and it was many months later before I finally clubbed him over the head and dragged him back to my Shepherd's Bush sauce lair.
