Multi-BAFTA nominee Julian Fellowes has shared his expert advice at the most recent BAFTA Rocliffe New Writing Forum.
With an established career as an actor, director, producer, screenwriter and novelist, it seems that there is nothing that Julian Fellowes hasn’t done. Now he can add patron of the Rocliffe New Writing Forum to that list. In 90 minutes he wooed our audience with his insight and wit and had cheeks hurting from laughing; all were hanging on his every word.
Although thorough in his assessment of each script, our writers took his comments with grace. Julian was no fool or fake. Lord Fellowes was charming and shared clever tips with the eager audience: “When you send your script to your buddies to read, don’t ask them what they think: ask them to mark the script each time they get bored”.
