Their published criteria, which apply when submissions reopen, say they represent clients living in the UK and Europe only, prefer writers who create series rather than those wanting to write exclusively for returning series, and ask that you contact them only once a complete script exists.
From their own submission guidance.
How to approach
Check the submissions page before doing anything, because the status changes and the page is where they say so. At the last check it read that they are not currently accepting new submissions and invited you to check back in future.
What makes this worth watching rather than forgetting is their FAQ, which sets out standing criteria for when the door opens: clients based in the UK and Europe, a preference for writers who originate series rather than write for existing ones, and an explicit request that you get in touch only once a script is complete. That is a clearer brief than most open agencies publish, so use the closed period to make sure you meet it.
The PreList verdict
Who this is for: UK and European writers who originate their own series and have a finished script. When this door opens, that is who it opens for.
Who should skip it: writers outside their stated territory, and anyone whose script is not finished, which their own FAQ asks you to respect.
Two of their pages sit slightly out of step, with the FAQ warmly inviting contact once a script exists while the submissions page says they are closed. The submissions page is the status board and it wins, but the FAQ is still the best statement of what they want.
