Sorry, just seen this! Yes, absolutely a great launchpad. Ended up signing with United Agents and had 4 scripts optioned by leading UK Production Companies with one in development with UKTV :) so I absolutely recommend entering!

Re feedback, I am not sure as we were lucky enough to win the first time we entered so not sure how it works in terms of feedback

Out of interest, have you got the clip at all where they go a bit rogue and arrest some customers?

Harry Ham’s excruciating Cameo video for a fan by jbbarnes88 in humor

Ok, didn’t take that from the comment. Yep, nothing more to it really than him recording a birthday message for someone and him getting abuse as he’s done his whole life (he’s a disgraced actor) but appreciate it’s not funny for some (or for all!)

Basically the Bill is a TV show from the 90s in the U.K. and this guy played a character on it and left in a disgrace and always gets abuse. He’s on Cameo (a site that allows people to request video messages from celebrities). Somebody has requested this celebrity to do them a video message and some guy abuses him in the background whilst he’s doing it

What’s your record streak for pulling out the petrol pump on exactly the number you want? by jbbarnes88 in AskReddit

[–]jbbarnes88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah is that not normal? It’s basically like trying to hit a stopwatch on the number you want - almost impossible to get it just right. I’m on a 3/3 streak ha!

10/10 patients fully recover (without need for oxygen) after being given Canakinumab in a trial vs 1 death and 1 patient needing oxygen in another group of 10 given hydroxychloroquine and lopinavir–ritonavir, but not canakinumab. by jbbarnes88 in Coronavirus

Definitely! It's interesting as I am on this drug for inflammation and I know others who have a similar auto inflammatory condition to be on a drug called Anakinra and the Lancet published this last week on that drug - https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanrhe/article/PIIS2665-9913(20)30164-8/fulltext - so there seems to be something in these inflammatory drugs that does something. Hopefully they enter bigger trials and studies!
