Queen & Country

Ok, this isn't exactly an outline, but more of a pitch. I will attempt to expand and improve later today but this is a little something for the time being. I'm just being distracted by all this snow :D

Fictional Idea:

A series of comedy programmes that will run over 20 programmes in a series, it will also be in the centre of prime time TV on either Friday at 9pm or Saturday at around 7/8pm, On BBC1. The idea is to have a series of sketches involving 3 – 4 impressionists. The sketches will cover all era’s from when the British Empire ruled the waves to the present day. Impressions will include Gordon Brown, The queen, Trafalgar commanders, old style King’s and Queens, World Wars and with further research more sketches will invite more sketches to be done. The programme will be no longer than 30 mins.

I understand the snow was a distraction, but thought this was a thin idea. Nothing there that says much thought went into it. Very, very broad. Sketch shows can be good, if there is a unique twist to them - this pitch didn't tell me anything. what is the twist? Is it Gordon Brown dealing with events in the past and Nelson dealing with Iraq? that might be interesting, but I couldn't tell. remember, be original.
