Russell T Davies

from Reasons To Be Joyful with Gaby Roslin

In this episode Gaby chats to screenwriter Russell T Davies who created some of the most watchable British TV shows of the last three decades. He discusses the success of bringing back ‘Doctor Who’ the ground-breaking ‘Queer As Folk’, ‘A Very English Scandal’ starring Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw, ‘Years and Years’ starring Emma Thompson, and Channel 4’s biggest ever box set launch which is available to watch now called ‘It’s a Sin’. He talks about working with Kate Winslet on her first acting job, casting Billie Piper in ‘Doctor Who’ and how his instincts told him to turn down the chance to work with Star Wars genius George Lucas. So many fascinating tales not to be missed in this episode.  Produced by Cameo Productions, music by Beth Macari.  Join the conversation on Instagram and Twitter @gabyroslin #thatgabyroslinpodcast For more information on the sponsors of this episode: Grass and Co. - Find your calm 25% OFF, plus free shipping at: www.grassandco.com/GABYUse discount code: GABY at checkout.LinkedIn Jobs - to post a job for free visit www.linkedin.com/GABY Terms and conditions apply.
