Here is a very helpful article for any script writer from the BBC:

The Perfect 10

When we head around the country for our BBC writersroom roadshows, one of the team will give a little talk about The Perfect Ten.

We read the first ten pages of every script that gets sent to us here at the BBC writersroom, and The Perfect Ten is a list of ten ways in which you can make those ten pages count, and make us want to read on.

Last year our development manager Paul Ashton wrote ten blog posts about The Perfect Ten – so now even if you can’t make it to a roadshow, you can find out what will help your writing shine when it reaches us.
