Lee is a f******* brilliant editor. And that's a fact.

Pat Doyle - Exec Producer - Knickerbockerglory

Lee is a great editor, bringing skill and diligence to every aspect of the job. He works at a consistently high standard, whether that's in collaboration with an edit producer or on his own. He is fast and efficient, able to grasp the tone of a programme quickly and he is inventive in all areas- whether it is the use of shots and music or the nuances of telling the story. Having worked closely with him myself, I would feel fortunate to have him on any show in the future. I am confident he would be an asset to any production.

Gerard Costello

Lee is a fabulous editor and a pleasure to work with. He tackled difficult material with excellent storytelling and problem solving skills. I look forward to working with him again.

Penny Fearon Showrunner

Lee is one of the most talented and creative editors in the business. I have worked with him since 2001 across single documentaries, multi-episodic returning series, specials and taster tapes. A gifted story teller, master of his craft when it comes to technology and a thoroughly nice chap in the process. He is calm under pressure, a problem solver, an ideas generator and is equally at home as a lead editor or as part of a team. Lee edited episode one of our ground breaking documentary Body Donors, which received critical and audience acclaim and I have no hesitation in recommending his skills and services.

Paul Stead

Lee is a great editor who is a dream to work with and extremely fast and talented.

Driana Jones Series Producer

Had a great experience working with Lee. He was left to his own devices for a lot of the time with paper edits, and I was very happy with the results he produced.

His cuts were all well thought out, had flair and he was quick.

He also has a sound technical knowledge which was very helpful given the requirements on our production.

Mat Marsters - Series Producer - John Barrowman's Pets With Problems - Channel 4
