Another successful AGM under our belts, and we report on a very successful year.  A lot of members are doing really well.  Big whoop!

​

Once the meeting was over we had a Q&A session with an all-female panel ... something you don't see very often, even though it's 2016! But hosted by R4 Afternooon Drama Writer and Producer, Gary Brown.

​

On the panel were Leeds-based scriptwriters Lisa Holdsworth (New Tricks, Midsomer Murders, Fat Friends), Gaby Chiappe (Shetland, The Level, Eastenders), and Alison Hume (Sparticle Mystery, Pure).

​

Really brilliant discussion. Told it like it is ... basically it's a tough industry to get into and succeed in.  Seems especially so if you're a woman and based in the north.
