Sitcom Coursework
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you of a new sitcom I have recently discovered which I think you may be interested in screening. I have watched the first episode of 'The Vicar of Dibley' and believe it has great potential to attract millions of viewers. This situation comedy is based around village life and the story of a woman vicar who has to settle into an extremely old fashioned community. Not only is it extremely funny but it also has a serious message about change and traditions.
The Vicar of Dibley is very well made and will meet the BBC's standards as it is suitable for a wide audience and is finished to a very high standard. It is professionally produced and stars the very well known actress, Dawn French. It has humorous characters, lots of physical and verbal comedy and a unique storyline. The titles are very well thought out to make the audience feel like they're part of the village community. The opening tune is a well-known childhood hymn and the camera shots make you feel like your coming towards the village. Both these effects make the audience feel welcomed into the village of Dibley. Once you're into the village the serious church settings make it hard for the audience to know what to expect. This is good as you don't know what sort of humour is going to be involved and you can't guess the storyline as nothing like this has been made before.
