Tell the story......
... David is a British television director and producer, having worked in television since the early 1990s. His work has ranged across high-end drama to prime-time TV series, with work such as The Life and Adventures of Nick Nickleby, Wycliffe, Band of Gold, Daylight Robbery, Liverpool 1, Minder, At Home With The Braithwaites, Born & Bred, Lark Rise To Candleford and series four of the highly acclaimed series Auf Wiedersehen, Pet. He’s also directed continuing dramas such as Casualty, Shakespeare and Hathaway and the Dumping Ground, and was the director for the poignant final episode of the BAFTA winning drama series Holby City.
He primarily focuses on performance-lead storytelling, creating clear and concise ways of driving the narrative, and is an advocate for helping actors achieve emotional truth. When he’s not behind a monitor or on set, he spends his time restoring classic Norton Commando motorcycles and walking his black labrador.
