Home & Away

Mum and I went out, and Mum went to the optician's to get her new glasses! The optician advised her not to wear her new glasses until tomorrow morning, because she'll look awesome with them on! Then Mum and I went for a picnic, talking about things like tsunamis, the fantasy execution of Kay Burley - the Angel Of Death - and why parents and kids loved CBeebies the moment it started in 2002. Now that it's grown up, it belongs to iPlayer now. And now, it's Teletubby time!
While there, the Autistica TV series idea came back into my head, with Tony Robinson as the narrator and characters from Sybil & Friends and Me, You, And...interacting on a coloured background and learning about random subjects like numbers, colours, letters, manners and other subjects such as life values, world culture and sign language. Each episode contains an extract from one of my stories, and ends with a wind down segment to help viewers calm down after such excitement.

Also, I have an email from Keith Chapman explaining about Moonie Moo. The scriptwriter is...
"The scriptwriter we are speaking to is Brian Wysol, who has lots of prime time experience. The name of the dairy producer must remain confidential for now sorry. But we are going to need to find Moonie a broadcaster first before any licensing deals can be agreed. 

For you own ideas, you need to find an experienced writer and designer to help you turn them into treatments that you can pitch. You need to show who the idea is aimed at, a summary, the characters, their personalities, the world, locations, at least half a dozen storylines, etc, etc. Then look at shows on TV you like and the production companies behind them which you can then approach."

Well, how kind of him! Nice of Keith Chapman to offer this piece of advice. This I will obey from now on.

Cancelled AGAIN!

We're sorry, but my curiosity and comparing programmes habit got the best of me and led me into Star's stressing territory. We will return once I've found something gentle to watch.

Please stand by.
