Hi guys,

I've been absent from the site for a few months as I've been writing the biography of my band - The Big Wednesday. Also, I've been writing a few scripts. My 'Only Fools and Horses' script has been accepted by the Appreciation Society. For thoses wishing to read the script, follow this link: http://www.ofah.net/blog/d-t-phone-home/

Cheers

Pete

I read your script.

Only Fools, along with Fraiser, are my 2 favourite sitcoms, leaning more towards Fools. I didn't expect such excellence. You captured the characters perfectly and had me laughing from the start. The very intro was so smartly done and so true to Trig and Del's characters; which you carried throughout, beautifully. I also loved how you threw in modern humour such as the wii.

You are very talented and I hope that you create your own sitcoms also and not just recreating (as a fan) scripts for shows you like. Clearly you get sitcoms and I wish you the very best. It took Sullivan many attempts to get going. Hopefully we'll be watching yours soon on the lazy nelly.

All the very best

I read the first half, it's VERY good! Very funny, and you captured the characters very well too! :)

Lovely to hear from you, Pete. I read your script and it sounds really authentic, really like the real thing. Very funny. I wish I had your sense of humour. Well done, mate. What are you going to do with it?

Thanks guys for the very encouraging comments. I'm bowled over. Or as Del-Boy would say, "Lovely Jubbly!".

I am currently writing my own original sitcom called 'In For a Penny' set in a Pound-shop. I've written 3 episodes and have sent the first episode to the BBC. They receive 10,000 uncommisioned scripts per year so I'm up against it. But quoting Del-Boy again, "He Who Dares Wins!"

Hi guys,

Hello sir! How have things been? You still on that high horse of yours? (I kid, I kid.) Very nice to see you, Pete.

Why, thank you! Yes everything is fine with me - I took a break with this site for a while until personal matters settled down. Germany is in the midst of economic chaos right now and I had to take a break from revolutionizing poetry. But expect more groundbreaking work to come soon! :)

Alfred von MacDougal, you remind me of myself thirty-five years ago. This is a compliment, not an insult.
