It would be truly cool if someone knew what this exact font is... I have tried running it through 'What the Font" website... not picking it up... so I am relying on another designer that I will bow down to... to match this little baby!

Thanks in advance!

Because the e's are so different it may well be custom script.

Not got a match in my 'script' faces here.

Or the 'e' differentials could be alternate OpenType™ glyphs, quite common on a decent script face, Candy has a load of them, for example.

Not a font - too many things give the game away - uneven height, odd ligatures and what Limbo mentioned.

[Limbo]

the ti would suggest it might be a font on second inspection.

'Cos, if you were going to hand draw it, you'd not collapse the cross bar into the tittle like that. looks shit.

[steveb]

Don't be ridiculous. No typographer would EVER draw anything like that!

There really is a shocking amount of cuntish brush scripts and shitty handwriting "fonts" around lately. If you have to use someone's handwriting for headlines, at least make sure it's legible.

[Limbo]

Haha. Exacto monsieur.

[Papersky]

thanks for the replies... you guys obviously know what you are talking about... do you have any suggestions on a handwriting style not too dissimilar, that feels contemporary... and with that I mean scripty but not over elaborate... feels young and fresh. Many thanks

Tom's suggestion "Candy" is pretty much on the same wavelength. I'm surprised you associate this style with youth and freshness because I always think of 1940s, 50s advertising when they used a lot of brush script because they could not afford suites of decent fonts after the war. So it says austerity and cheap to me.
