Chav was my No 1 vote. It was kind of a complete draw with Flying High, so I had to mull over a lot. Googleman was also close behind. The both runners-up were shinier, kind of high concept scripts - Chav felt funny, also clear and doable, what decided.

Good "speech" in the Mother Nature's thread as well, Dustin. The personal dilemma is, the more one takes such things to heart or has empathy with those who suffer the consequences, and gets involved, it can bring massive bad feelings and negativity into life… and that can be a dangerous path, while ignorance is not an alternative same time. So, I hope we writers can balance it out. Right now, I feel writers, musicians, and also comedians are the most effective catalyst to the true progress in "responsible humanism" or whatever this is we want. Although I think it should be the work and task of others, principally. Enough of this...

Definitely a quality script. The character gives lots of space to run wild even more.

Nice one, Dustin. Enjoyed this one quite a bit, and as I said in my earlier post, it'd work well on screen.

Good job.

Quoted from Cameron
Well done Dustin, made my top 3. Were myself and Irish Eyes correct with the Rab C Nesbitt influence, or was it just a happy coincidence?


Certainly influenced by Rab C Nesbitt, Ali G and Lee Nelson. A mash up of those three characters. They all help reveal our own ignorances in a very clever way. It often takes looking deeper into their jokes to fully appreciate them. That's what I tried to achieve here.

Thanks, mate.

Quoted from khamanna
Well this was exceedingly funny for me. I seriously laughed outloud.
Loved his character.
His superpowers were a bit much - you combined the two - he can detect a crying baby on large distances and he can detect bullshit. I would stick with only bullshit detection and bring up that phrase a couple of times more for the sakes of the challenge. Otherwise, as a stand alone entry - it doesn't matter.
But I would still drop his crying baby detection skills, I think the story will be leaner without it. I think you could continue with this and make it into web series or something. Would be very funny to watch on screen one day.


Thank you Khamanna, all good points and I'll bear them in mind on the rewrite.

Frankly, I'm surprised to find an audience with this that resides outside of the UK. I knew that I would be alienating a good deal of the forum, but I am keeping one eye on production so wanted to do something that could be made.

Thanks again, Khamanna, much appreciated.

Well done Dustin! As you can see from my comment I did like this one and it would have gotten a recommend for me if this had been the normal voting system.

Germans are stereotyped in my country as lacking a sense of humour but that clearly isn't true.

I think this is the first script you've ever liked of mine, so I'm really pleased about that. I may even have a look around for potential producers.

Thanks for letting me know.
