Sitcom Trials Heat 1 - 10th Anniversary Season

Report from the 1st heat of The Sitcom Trials http://sitcomtrials.co.uk Includes interview with judge David (TV Burp) Quantick. Other judges were Katie Tyrell and David Schneider.


The Sitcom Trials is the comedy show devised by Kev F Sutherland where brand new sitcoms compete head to head and the audience vote for their favourite. The show enjoyed three successful years at the Edinburgh Fringe and a series on ITV1, plus national and international tours including Hollywood in 2005, and now runs at the Leicester Square Theatre in London. See the website for news.

The sitcoms in competition were:

* Life as a Foreign Language
by John Barron and Olly Allsopp
Directed by Kym Suttle

* Long Term Sick
by Mark Brotherhood
Directed by Lydia Parker

* Prodigies
by Alex Kirk and Simon Messingham
Directed by Chris Lince

* The Not Gots
by Malcolm Duffy
Directed by Nick Ewans

* Alan Pob - Writing Wrongs
by Saul Wordsworth
Directed by Chris Fitchew

The judges for this first night are David (I'm Alan Partridge) Schneider, David (TV Burp) Quantick, Katie (Now Show) Tyrell and Steve (Eastenders) Keyworth. The audience vote decides which sitcom's ending is seen in each heat, and combines with the judges vote to select the semi-finalists.
