Diane Messias is a satirist, ex-BBC comedy producer, writer for hire. Blocked by Katie Hopkins for saying she’ll disappear up her own arsenal of invective. Wag, not WAG. Find her work at ScriptWhizz. She self describes as a comedy/drama writer and script consultant, who has spent the last 40 years trying to be funny. Starting out in theatre, Diane subsequently joined the BBC as a Comedy producer/director, and has written for and worked with many household names (no, not Domestos). Her production credits include One Foot In The Grave and The News Quiz. Diane also has extensive teaching experience – comedy writing, screenplay and playwriting, standup – most notably at Goldsmiths, University of London, the Screen & Film School, the Drama Studio, and ALRA.
