TV and Theatre

Television

I am the New Writing North / Channel 4 Screenwriting Award winner for 2026. I am working with Merman (producers of Catastrophe, Motherland, Amandaland, Bad Sisters, and YOUTH) on a long-term placement to develop my writing.

My comedy drama short EARLY CHECK OUT is in production with Undivided Pictures starring Chess Tomlinson.

WIFE AFTER DEATH, inspired by my memoir, won Best New Comedy Script at the All3Media New Voice Awards 2021. The project was optioned by Objective Fiction and developed with Channel 4.

US AFTER DAVE is a television comedy-drama loosely inspired by my bestselling memoir LIFE AFTER YOU. It explores young widowhood, family, and starting again through a fictional lens.

My comedy pilot GEORDIE SHAWS was selected as a Female Pilot Club finalist 2026.

Theatre

I am a graduate of Lancaster University’s Theatre Studies degree. I am now enjoying moving back into the theatre making world, with a new play entitled HOME BIRDS about yearning for a childhood home. The project is currently in R & D, generously supported by Arts Council England.

The show is directed by Karen Traynor, original score is by Liz Corney, and the producer is Kate Craddock. Follow on Instagram for more: @homebirdsplay
