From 1 GCSE to writing a TV sitcom on BBC1 Tommy G Talks

Tommy G Talks - Episode 76: From 1 GCSE to a TV sitcom on BBC1 (Interview with Jimmy Donny Cosgrove.)
 
In this episode I interview the writer behind the brand new British comedy "Warren" on BBC1.
Jimmy's life has gone from having a few hundred loyal followers to literally millions of people having an opinion on his work almost overnight.
You can see the new British Comedy “WARREN” on BBC1 Monday’s at 9pm or on the BBC iPlayer.
Like any success story, there’s always evidence of challenge and struggle and in this episode you’ll hear:
- How Jimmy got into university despite being told no, due to only having 1 GCSE.
- What it’s like dealing with harsh and spiteful reviews.
- What Jimmy did to secure the show on the BBC.
- How his 10 minute YouTube video opened up doors that led to being commissioned.
- The gag that either made or destroyed the dream.
- Plus many more interesting topics of conversation! Let me know your thoughts guys and thanks for being here.
