Script Submission Stage 2

Earlier in March, I submitted one of my feature film scripts to two film festivals, one of them which is Best Script Award based in London. I write this article as a follow-up to the progress with some good news.

I've heard back from the Best Script Award and I'm pleased to confirm that my film has won an award for Best Film Awards - Screenplay For Children (Feature), March 2021.

So basically, this film is called Thrill House and focuses on a working-class family who enter a game show whilst on a fight for survival. As a matter of fact, the script won me another award a few years back - Achievement in Writing 2017 which was presented by Seven/Five Productions. So this award makes it my second.

I display an image of my certificate, plus a link to a list of the Monthly Winners for March 2021.

The Reckoning

I watched  The Reckoning  on BBC iPlayer a month ago, following a shaky signal on BBC1. The drama, a biographical take on Jimmy Savile, delves into his career and the sexual offenses he got away with. Controversial, but intriguing.  Not all of us knew before Jimmy's death in 2011 that he was a sex offender. One reason was due to cover-ups by the BBC. My late mother found him a little bit snarky. I can't really blame her, nor can I defend Jimmy's actions. Further to our knowledge on what he did outside of showbiz, there were some people who were suspicious about him. One example is highlighted through a speech Johnny Rotten once made when he said that he wanted "to kill Jimmy Savile" and that he thought he was "a hypocrite". The show explores how he evaded punishment, featuring impactful music and cinematography. The portrayal by Steve Coogan is spot-on, navigating interviews and interactions convincingly. Heart-breaking snippets from real-life victims ad...
