Hi Carmen I would be interested in the reply to your question, too, as my piece has a fair few swear words.

Hi John or whoever can assist, quick question - With the writers award it says in the terms and condition's. 'Entries must not contain defamatory, obscene, offensive or any other unsuitable material.Original ideas must be suitable to be broadcast by the BBC and for performance at any showcase' does that mean the exclusion of bad language? Thanks,
