    I enjoyed it and considering the budget, ye did very well :) The script was very well written and there were a few laugh out loud moments although some of the acting was a little wooden and overdone. Make sure and post up any follow ups!

    Are you the lead?

    Nope, co-wrote it/played Campo. Let me reiterate, I've never acted before. Allowances must be made for my performance.

    Reminds me a bit of Curb, some of Gervais' stuff and even old Podge & Rodge with the Crime Call recreation! :p

    Definitely better than I expected, great for a pilot, keep going. I'd watch more!

    Cheers man,if it's half as funny as any of the shows you mentioned then I'd consider it a success.

    That was good. At times it was very good. I really liked the Romeo and Juliet bit (or the corruption of it:D). And the male rapist was very funny.

    The scene in the bathroom reminded me a lot of the opening of Skins.
    The second scene in the bathroom was genius - the expression on his face putting on the nose.

    I liked the two guys looking directly into the camera at different times when they were talking outside the audition. It is playing on the sitcom/mockumentary idea.

    Cheers man. We were so pressed for time that we had to use a tomato instead of a clown nose in the bathroom scene. A working title for the episode was "Tears of a Clown" but we felt it might give away the payoff.

    We're still waiting for the Beastie Boys' approval, I'm afraid.

    For anyone who's interested "Look It Up" didn't even shortlist. Thanks to everyone who watched it and gave us feedback. We really appreciate it. A follow up episode is currently being written.

    If you look closely, you'll notice that it's actually me being raped in the reconstruction.
