Projects
Work history
Producer & Honey Bought The House
1 x 60mins TX PILOT - Relationships/property format. A first-time house-buying couple are given £15k to help buy their dream home, but only one of them gets to choose the house. I oversaw all aspects, especially establishing the rules and compliance guidelines, plus shooting and then edit producing to delivery.
Series Producer & 24 Hours To Go Broke
-
5x 60mins Comedy travelogue. In each episode, two stars visit an unfamiliar country with £10k to spend on oddities such as midnight golf in Iceland or sabre dancing in Armenia. I chose the destinations, monitored compliance on location and wrote and edit-produced two shows - "Armenia" (David Baddiel & Richard Herring) and "Bavaria" (Josh Widdicombe & Greg Rutherford.)
