ROB BRYDON'S IDENTITY CRISIS
Documentary

BBC4/Jones The Film

Has Welshman Rob Brydon become too English?  What does it mean to be Welsh anyway?  Rob undertakes a personal journey through Wales and his comedy to find out if he is Welsh and if the Welsh can laugh at themselves.  Celebrity interviews, gigs and fly on the wall conversation.
"Beautiful and moving". Emma Freud, Loose Ends Radio 4

MOVING WALLPAPER
Eps 4, 5 & 6

 ITV1/Kudos

Ben Miller plays the offensive, flawed, genius Producer Jonathan Pope leading a production team through the trials of making a weekly soap.  Ep 4: Jonathan Pope fears his authority is being ignored.  He tells the writers that Hugo Speers has quit the soap - it's not true.  But Hugo finds out and really does quit.  Ep 5: Chased down by the Executive Producer, played by Rachel Cassidy, Jonathan throws a strop and quits.  It was only a gesture and he didn't mean it.  Ep 6: It's too hot.  Lucy Liemann's character, Sam, gets 'soap fever' and sleeps with a member of the cast - on set!

ROB BRYDON'S ANNUALLY RETENTIVE
Series

BBC Three/ Jones The Film

It seems like a panel show, but very quickly we slip behind the set and into Rob Brydon's ego-driven attempts to make the show he wants to make set against all the other 'I'm a star' things that he's doing.  'This is worse than last time' Jane Moore team captain.  'It's a hit', Lucy Lumsden Controller, BBC Comedy Commissioning.

IT’S NOT MY FAULT
Short Film

If they could hear what he was thinking…No,no,no – that would NOT be good. Imagine hearing what’s going on inside a man’s head as he walks around a party. A comedy of desire, uncertainty and stress. http://www.itsnotmyfault.info/

TERRI MCINTYRE
'CLASSY BITCH'
Series

BBC Scotland

Not so much Sex in the City, more in the street. Simon Carlyle stars as Terri MnIntyre; a woman who bluffs and blags her way through the life she wishes she didn’t have. Here is a woman with a lot of life experience- rough, smooth and just-a-bit prickly; a woman with reasonable, attainable hopes and drams. However, just when it matters most, Terri does what she thinks she should do rather than what she ought to do; always making the wrong decision and ending up in ‘a right old bloody guddle!’
