Loved this course ! Really informative, fun and absolutely flew by ! A great bunch also in the group , first experience of what a writers room would be like ! Bennett was absolutely hilarious and facilitated the sessions with such professionalism . Answered lots of questions and left us all with an understanding of how to write a script and a comedy sit com . Just brilliant !

This was one of the best courses I have ever undertaken. I learnt so much from Bennett and it has totally changed my approach to sitcom writing. I would recommend this in a heartbeat to any interested in developing a sitcom.
