It's not film or TV, but you might be interested in BBC World Service's International Playwriting Competition - details here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/specials/1521_int_play_comp/index.shtml The brief is a 60-minute radio play and there's an excellent prize.
Thanks OR - for some reason I can't seem to leave a message on your blog!
It worked far away. Hurrah!
