This year, in development

The upside with working on development projects is the variety of the blank page, and the chance to mould material from scratch.

The downside? Can't even mention who I'm working for, let alone on what.

Proud to plug, though, currently in the presence of like-minded souls in the Talkback Thames comedy department, and the only way I can pretty up this post is with this 2010 updated version of the old Thames TV logo.

Freefonix - Prepsie Idol - one more time

Freefonix episode Prepsie Idol written by Neil Mossey and Robert Venes

Just seen the episode of Freefonix which I wrote with Rob Venes, PREPSIE IDOL, gets another airing tomorrow on CBBC.

from www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b009gcz1
Children's animation about a teenage band that discover a magic note, much to the chagrin of the record companies.

While Mya tries to figure out a way to sell Fizzy Blast, an overly carbonated ComaCo soft drink, Vox announces he's detected a 13th note prodigy in Los Bosmos. Seeing a way to kill two birds with one stone, Mya holds a viddycast prepsie music contest designed to draw out the prodigy.

Freez alone gets picked to perform, while BB and Mo track down Coda, the prodigy. BB empathizes with Coda's desire to win the contest, but she convinces him not to play 13th note. As Coda and Freefonix get away, the Mantis goes after them. A sound clash ensues in which Coda helps our heroes defeat Kurtz, Lady Lux and Hitt.
