Welcome to Tom Jamieson & Nev Fountain's website...
Hello people. We're comedy writers for TV and radio and this is our site. Hidden within this electronic CV are samples of stuff we're done, updates on what we're doing now, and rash promises about stuff we're about to do. Hope you like what we do, and we hope you don't feel the time spent footling about our world is time wasted.
Yours, Tom and Nev.
