An episode that starts so calm before a speedy descent into all manner of imaginations: from sperm eyes, to mucas plugs, giant rows of red penises, turtle shows, fish finger butties and a face full of Whitby. With hosts Letty Butler and Stephen Mellor plus guests Alan Frost and Philippa Howell.
The prompts were taken from The Writers Toolbox, by Jamie Cat Callan, and were: 200 words on the pre-prepared prompt of ‘On Tuesday She Asked Me the Most Peculiar Question.’ They then have three minutes to respond to the unseen prompt ‘My Brother Did this Weird Thing with Turtles,’ and one minute to respond to ‘Your Mother’s Pearls.’
More info about the hosts and guests can be found at www.prompetyprompt.com, including highlights from the prompts, or by following the links for Letty Butler, Stephen Mellor, Alan Frost, and Philippa Howell.
Why not have a go at the prompts yourself (but don’t forget to time yourself, and no cheating!) and send us your own responses at prompetyprompt@gmail.com or via twitter.com/prompetyprompt & instagram.com/prompetyprompt You never know, you might feature in a later show.
