Available MARCH 2027 (possibly short jobs in Oct-Nov 2026). I'm a highly creative Producer/Director, Series Director, Edit Producer of documentaries, travelogue and investigative/experiential formats. Arts and History a speciality with a dash of Science, Royal History, Music, Food and Crime. I've made films for: BBC, Channel 4, PBS, Curiosity Stream, Sky Arts/History, ZDF, Channel 5 and more. I love finding fresh narrative angles and creating beautiful, dramatic sequences. Bringing clarity to complex ideas is a speciality. Strong Development skills including Photoshop, decks and sizzles. I also cut, mainly in Adobe Premiere Pro and shoot on Sony FX6 and Nikon Z7. Based in Bristol but can easily work from London, Cardiff and Los Angeles. Valid I-Visa.
I'm currently editing a history/music feature documentary on Adobe Premiere. This year I've also written podcast scripts and series Edit Produced 3 episodes (concurrently) of blockbuster Art authentication series Fake or Fortune? I was Series Producer + Director on a six part travelogue: Prue & Sandi's South African Adventure, shooting for a month in South Africa (airs autumn 2026).
My Who Do You Think You Are? with Layton Williams for BBC1 aired in 2025, a challenging setup including research and filming in Jamaica, resulting in a funny and emotional film. In non-broadcast work I shot and edited a film to coincide with the Royal Assent for Martyn's Law for charity Survivors Against Terror. My 90' feature doc on the Duke and Duchess of Windsor in the Bahamas (Edward & Wallis: the Bahamas Scandals), working with Royal expert Andrew Lownie, went out on Channel 5. I directed the first episode of the series Killing Sherlock for BBC2, and I made the Disappearance episode of Agatha Christie: Lucy Worsley on the Mystery Queen. I also directed 3 episodes of Ancient Murders Unearthed, shaping this new investigative Crime/Forensic Anthropology/Archaeology format including fight sequences shot on location. I series directed Jay Blades: No Place Like Home - a distinctive new history series for Channel 5.
Other credits include Makeup: A Glamorous History (BBC2) presented by Lisa Eldridge, living history with Back in Time for School (BBC2); and Who Do You Think You Are? with Ruby Wax (BBC1). I've made innovative archive-only and interview and archive docs - such as History of Now for BBC 2, and films in the Timeshift strand for BBC4.
I have worked regularly with top presenting talent, including Fiona Bruce, Jay Blades, David Starkey, Mark Gatiss, Turi King, Sara Cox, Lucy Worsley and many more. Presenters know they can trust me to keep a close eye on editorial content, direct a strong performance, and ensure that they shine.
My personal interests draw me to a wide range of subjects, including early music, history of art and of fashion, food and material culture (particularly of the 16th Century and 1930s). I have a successful vintage clothing business and I contest with Glastonbury Brass band (1st Section) on Cornet. My academic background encompasses science, social science, history and arts, and I still engage in research in history. I recently curated, graphic designed and built an exhibition for The Greensleeves Project on dress in the 16th century song. I have extensive safeguarding training as a junior football club welfare officer, and also spend my Saturday mornings as an assistant referee/linesman.
