Driving Home for Christmas

A five-part radio drama written by five different writers from various parts of Wales. This production was ‘a road movie for the radio.’ I story-lined the project so the fictional journey of the characters passed through the places where the writers lived. Starting in Cardiff—through Treorchy in the Valleys, Swansea, and Rhuthin via Bethlehem and Snowden—the story covered many miles of Welsh countryside.

I am an award-winning director, producer, and executive producer. I’ve helmed several films for cinema and dozens more episodes of popular television drama. I’ve also written and co-written several projects. I’m passionate about stories which delight, engage, and surprise. I believe in the power of those narratives to move audiences to laughter or tears. I want to make big, bold dramas which leave those who watch them forever changed.
