Read MoreVersatile and experienced director, producer and writer of award-winning specialist-factual and observational documentaries. Emmy and Grierson nominated.
History, science, the environment, mental health... wherever there's a compelling story to be told with innovation, humour and heart. Strong self-shooter and director of single or multi-camera crews. I've filmed in challenging environments on vastly different budgets, from the Serengeti to the Arctic. Always keen to take on a challenge.
"Peter did a brilliant job managing privileged access... and a complicated bit of history. He brought it all together with strong storytelling, beautiful camerawork, proper specialist factual content and a warm and engaging tone" - Shaminder Nahal, Head of Specialist Factual, Channel 4 "Peter was a pleasure to work with. Totally across the editorial and a great storyteller, he did a brilliant job. Would work with him again without hesitation" - Sarah Waldron, Head of International Current Affairs, BBC TelevisionYou can see examples of my work on
