Laugh It Up At Work (a new comedy show idea for UK TV in development)

[Originality]

Hello,

On behalf of a team project from the University of Warwick, we are working with All3Media to create a new unscripted TV show for ages 16-24.

We are pitching a new career & comedy competition variety show that includes workplace topics from any job in an employees' and customers' point-of-view. For example, what could go wrong on April 1st if there's a teacher you don't like (from a student POV) compared to the teacher's thoughts (maybe they'll choose to have a sick day). It is about scenarios that could become or have been real-life or just an unacted thought.

Through research found last year, we found that students and young people want to learn more about getting a job and understanding the relationships between colleagues, but they don't want to watch a documentary TV show dedicated towards it. This way, our idea is designed to engage young viewers with a fun show where they can vote to save their favourite team and send in ideas of their own for each episode and season. Despite the humour, they will be taking away facts about workplace scenarios and education that they will unknowingly use in the future.
