Av I gorra telly on me ‘ead? Maybe not, but your head (and body) could actually be on the telly. For the past year or so me and Old Scouse Bird have been writing a sitcom after being approached by a production company. It’s something we’ve kept deadly quiet until we knew what was happening with it but since signing with a new agent (eee I know, proper showbiz – but these sort of things need to be done if that’s the area you want to get into) we’ve decided on a different approach and we’re going to film a pilot. I’m not gonna reveal the story but obviously it’s based around the Scouse Bird character and we need one amazing girl to play her as she’ll ‘make’ the show so to speak. I’ve been asked a few times ‘why don’t you play her?’ and while I know the character inside out, I just prefer life behind the camera, in the shadows thanks very much. I’ve attached the press release with details of how to audition for the part and 100 example tweets (although you can choose any from my back catalogue) and we just want you to film yourselves delivering these tweets so we can see who has the ‘Scouse Bird’ wit. Please all have a go, share this blog around as much as possible so we can find the bird of our dreams. Best of luck and I can’t wait to meet you, whoever you are! (I’M FUMIN, WHILE WRITIN THIS I FORGOT ABOUT ME CUP OF TEA AN NOW IT’S FREEEEZIN)
THE QUESTION IS…
