"As a result of the Internship, I was offered the position of Script Coordinator. You spend a lot of time with the Show Runner and you get to be aware of every last inch of the production ? it is amazing training for anyone who wants to do this."

- Ian Carpenter, 2006 Global Television Writers Apprentice Award
