Polish and Pitch with Lucy

Drawing on more than 30 years of experience developing, producing and commissioning comedy, I offer one-to-one mentoring for writers looking to strengthen their work, develop their ideas and better understand the television industry.

As the BBC's first Controller of Comedy Commissioning and later Head of Comedy at Sky, I spent much of my career reading scripts, identifying talent and helping projects find their way to the screen.

What we can cover

  • Script feedback and the final polish

  • Navigating the television industry

  • Broadcaster and production company expectations

  • Agents, producers and routes into the industry

  • Building confidence and maintaining momentum

How it works

We begin with a short discovery call to discuss your goals and what you would like to get from mentoring.

Sessions take place on Zoom and are tailored to your individual needs. If you're sharing a script, I'll read it in advance and provide detailed feedback, helping you identify priorities and agree clear next steps.

If you have a script you'd like feedback on, an idea you're trying to develop or questions about the industry, I'd be delighted to arrange an introductory conversation.
