Would like to echo Steve’s sentiments. @50comedy50 is a fantastic program that has led to us working with so much comedy talent! If you want to find an ‘in’ to this industry - give them a shout x
Spent the morning reading through some excellent applications for the @50Comedy50 ITV2 Celebability writers room placement scheme.
