Simon Nye

Simon Nye (born 29 July 1958 in Burgess Hill, Sussex) is an English comic television writer, best known for creating the hit sitcom Men Behaving Badly, writing all of the four ITV Pantos, co-writing the 2006 film Flushed Away, co-writing Reggie Perrin and creating the latest adaption of the Just William series in the 2010 Just William CBBC series.

Career

Nye was born in Burgess Hill, Sussex. Nye was educated at Collyer's School and Bedford College, University of London, where he studied French and German. He started his writing career as a translator, publishing translations of books on Richard Wagner, Henri Matisse and Georges Braque, before turning his hand to novel writing in 1989 with Men Behaving Badly. This was followed in 1991 by Wideboy, which he later adapted into the TV show Frank Stubbs Promotes.

Men Behaving Badly

Nye's TV writing career began in 1990 when he was persuaded by producer Beryl Vertue to adapt his first novel for the small screen. The two series of Men Behaving Badly was broadcast on ITV in 1991. The show soon went on to achieve critical and commercial success, winning the Writers' Guild of Great Britain Award for Best Situation Comedy in 1995, and the Royal Television Society Award for Best Situation Comedy/Comedy Drama in 1996. The show became the most-repeated comedy show in the 1990s.

Someone Anyone

by: Anberlin

Some people has this
Finally moved on
But I guess I was wrong
Do we not learn from mistakes?
Do we not have what it takes?
Are you the cure or disease?
Do you still take as you please
Are you the cure? Or are you the disease?
Chorus:
Someone, someone tell me what they're fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light
Someone, someone, someone tell me why we need it?
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light
So we'll be fine, yesterday's gone
Enough hope that I'm wrong
If we don't learn from their past
We'll repeat them, history on at last
Are you with us or without?
Seen this ever fading out
Are with us, well are you with us?
Chorus:
Someone, someone tell me what they're fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light
Someone, someone, someone tell me why we need it?
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light
Are you the cure or disease?
Do you still take as you Wlease
Are you the cure? Or are you the disease?
Chorus:
Someone, someone tell me what they're fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light, to the light
Someone, someone tell me what they're fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away to the light
Someone, someone, someone tell me why we need it?
