We chat to Tom Palmer and Tom Stourton, the scriptwriting team behind the feature film All My Friends Hate Me. The writers met as school and have been performing sketches and double acts since then. They created the hilarious “web film” High Renaissance Man and had previously collaborated with director Andrew Gaynord on such comedy hits as Stath Lets Flats.

We discuss the evolving nature of comedy, British influences such as Alan Partridge, their collaborative writing process, class-based satire, depicting social anxiety and paranoia, and the surprising twists in their debut feature. Spoiler alert!

You can watch Andrew Gaynord’s short hit CGI Brows on YouTube.
