OUT OF THE SCRIPTWRITING SHADOWS

Comic Andy Hamilton has most likely had you bent double with laughter. As well as appearances on panel shows like Have I Got News For You, he co-created Outnumbered and Drop the Dead Donkey, and has written for everything from Not the Nine O’Clock News to The Two Ronnies. Now he’s in town to discuss his debut novel, The Star Witness, about a soap star whose life is set to unravel horribly.
