About Me

I started script reading in 1997, first at Blue Heaven Productions the production company behind The Ruth Rendell Mysteries, and then for BBC Drama under Jane Tranter.  In 1999 I became a freelance script reader and editor with clients including Tiger Aspect , BBC Drama, TAPS, BBC Comedy, ITV (Yorkshire, Carlton, Granada) and Cinema Verity (the production company of renowned drama producer Verity Lambert).  In addition I was a script assessor for a variety of Writer Development Schemes including BBC Talent, ITV Yorkshire and ITV Carlton.  

My first break into production script editing came in 2001 on the revamped Crossroads and from here I moved on to the hugely successful Sunday night ITV show Heartbeat.  I then went on to the BBC’s flagship Saturday night medical drama Casualty.  After two successful years on the show I moved on to script edit the six-part ITV crime drama Blue Murder, starring Caroline Quentin.  Most recently I worked in development at ITV Manchester Drama, developing the next series of Blue Murder as well as a host of original dramas for a variety of broadcasters and other media platforms.
