: Re: Script Writing as it pertains to TV and Radio lines If a Radio or TV needs to be audible. How is that written in a Script? Is it written like the characters, or is written in the description

I'd write it in the script. You have to hire someone to read the lines, and it's audible dialogue which the characters and audience have to hear and react to.

Upper cabinet to the left of the sink, bottom shelf.

RADIO ANNOUNCER
And now, we present for your enjoyment the dramatization of Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere, with James McAvoy as Richard Mayhew, Natalie Dormer as Door, David Harewood as the Marquis de Carabas, and Benedict Cumberbatch as the Angel Islington.

JOHN
Hurry up!

GREG
All right, all right! You'd think the man's never heard a radio drama before.

If ever thou gavest hosen or shoon,
Then every night and all
Sit thou down and put them on,
And Christ receive thy soul...
