Irish, screenwriter, statistician. Reps: Independent Talent (not for statistics though, they'd be super confused if you called wanting statistics)
Good insight here from Sophie in the trenches/at the coalface/some further metaphors
Sophie Petzal@sonicscrewup.bsky.social · 9mo agoWhen you try to explain why scripted development can take so long, it's almost embarrassing to have to tell people that it does not boil down to some very specific, rigorous process, but rather that it might take you 5 days to write a draft, and seventeen weeks to get each set of notes back on it.
This is the trailer for the latest show my sister @susanconnolly.bsky.social has worked on. The first episode of The Iris Affair will premiere on Sky / Now TV on Thurs 16Oct. youtu.be/Ck1P_Lcuxv0 (Ahhhhhh!)

👀 It me. Writey writey. (Yes yes the actual writing was done ages ago because of the nature of TV production and also of linear time. But still!) #TheIrisAffair #HiddenAssetsTV
CarolC@carolconnolly.bsky.social · 10mo ago(yes this does mean Susan has 2 shows she was involved with live on TV at the moment. It is a very cool milestone and I am going to be obnoxiously proud about her. TWO!!!)
So helpful and convenient to be able to just use Carol's posts instead of initiating my own promo 😁
CarolC@carolconnolly.bsky.social · 10mo agoThe latest TV show my sister @susanconnolly.bsky.social worked on starts tonight on RTE1 at 9:30pm! You can watch the trailer for Season 3 of Hidden Assets below. youtu.be/xgKP0vEEbzc

I would destroy these Olympians in a Supermarket Sweep. Not at any actual sport obvs, but at competitiveconsumption? I would be a star #LateLateToyShow
Ohhhh Jonny was gonna toss the ball with him but Patrick got in the way! I hope they get a chance to do it back stage #LateLateToyShow
Hahaha they didn't even draw out the Sexton reveal. Just liek, fuck this cardboard cutout - heeeeere's Jonny! #LateLateToyShow
Over the moon that the kids are so engaged by the books and getting the time to share that with Patrick and the viewers. The interviewing all show has been class, but it's so vital for this segment #LateLateShow
(Taking a weary drag from a cigarette) That was a long time ago, Alan. A different life. A simpler time. When everything I wanted was right there in front of me. (She looks away, unable to meet his gaze) I'm too tall for the red and yellow pedal car now...
This is about the time the excitement and the sugar high can no longer overcome the "way past bedtime" barrier... #LateLateToyShow
The ride-on parade has such a grip on my soul - I'm giving my godchild a mercedes g63 in wine red for Christmas - she might have only learned to walk recently, but my god she will ride in style!! #LateLateToyShow
Alan Costello@alan.irish · 2y agoDon’t forget that if the bike parade has a wee dote in a tiny plastic Mercedes G Wagon it means 6 more weeks of winter #LateLateToyShow
Pretty sure I went to Veterinary College with Kevin #LateLateToyShow
Free range eggs straight from the farm! Kevin knows the way to my heart #LateLateToyShow
OH NO A TECHNICAL FAULT! Good on her for not getting rattled #LateLateToyShow
I'd trade in those passes for some space seeds if I could to be honest #LateLateToyShow
Imagine if they got the question wrong about where it is and they didnt let them go #LateLateToyShow
Nice to see the future of the arts so strong in Ireland - class work from Leo there ##latelatetoyshow
(I would like some seeds that have been to space if there are any going spare) #latelatetoyshow
Zara is fully 100% like - yeah you stay down here and build, I AM GOING TO SPACE #Latelatetoyshow
Yesssss Norah!!!! Best celeb meeting their fans EVER #Latelatetoyshow
Oh my god is Norah gonna come out and meet them? Please please #latelatetoyshow
Zara honestly seems a bit concerned by the fact Patrick doesnt know basic principles of spacecraft engineering #latelatetoyshow
YESSSS TINY CHILD IN A LAB COAT SPOUTING SPACE FACTS #LateLateToyShow
If Patrick falls ill I think Brian Óg is positioning himself to step into his place. I for one would not complain (no shade to Patrick but Brian Óg gives him a run for his money) #Latelatetoyshow
Loving Georgie Mae's unflinchingly honest reviews of all toys that "don't really do very much". The hero we need #LateLateToyShow
