Woolly? Moi?
Never one to let an opportunity pass for self-promotion, Lock and Load is moderately proud to announce a small competition.
Have a look at My Visual Pitch for Penny Dreadful. Guess what happens in the end. The nearest/funniest gets my unread copy of Story.

Something tells me it would be unfair for me to enter...
If you've still got the poi then surely you'll need another copy of Story.
Talking of setting fire to family members, my future son-in-law set fire to his hair blowing out birthday candles.
Fortunately I already have a copy of Story too.
Said prostitute goes on the run. Chased by dark, mysterious characters.
She can turn to no-one for help cos even the coppers are in on it gov.
She heads for Edinburgh and meets two nice gentlemen called Burke and Hare. Then gets done to death. I'm in that kind of mood today.
Oh, if I'm right then please don't send me that ripping yarn. Instead donate to a charity of your choice.
Should I be fortunate enough to be crowned the winner, I would gratefully accept the book.
And read it.
Apologies if this is, in fact, your plot...
I think the twist is the protag Penny has gone schizophrenic as a shield against what she has to do to earn a dreadful penny or two.
She doesnt realise that it is her own alter ego, dressed as a gentleman ala "Tipping the Velvet" complete with comedy moustache and false, er, ahem, equipment, who is committing the murders, with said equipment, to frame the Prince of Wales because, as Royalty, he doesn't carry cash, and therefore didn't pay her for his...er..ride.
The extra twist is the part of Penny is played by the Thunderbirds Lady Penelope Puppet (sorry, people, spoilers, I know, but she wasn't a real live actress, you know...).
Lady P Puppet identified with the role as she had been working on the streets herself,- because of typecasting she couldn't get any more acting roles and had missed the audition call for "Team America" as the pink Rolls broke down on the way.
With this inspired casting the writer/producer Elinor also cleverly fends off any possible critique of wooden acting...
Should you have the time...
You're Meme'd!
A copy of Story goes to the monkey with the typewriter!
Popping over to yours for the meme Sheiky...
I've sent you an email with the oasis's secret location...
