As ever, in these gloomy times, I’m deliberately focusing on upbeat moments in the past.
Some of my contacts may not be aware of my background in children’s TV. Over the years I produced and directed content for CBBC, Disney Channel and Nickelodeon. It was a fun period filled with silly characters, larger than life celebrities and vast amounts of gunge.
A highlight was working on two series of Pet School for Cineflix shown on CBBC. I developed and wrote this innovative series that helped children answer the perennial question: “Am I ready for a pet?”
You can imagine how thrilled I was when the series went on to win an International Emmy!
