Director
"I first worked with Andrew many years ago developing a thriller script for BBC Drama. As a Director he has always challenged expectation and found the heart of the drama both in performance and style. I was delighted to work with him again recently and to see that all that passion and talent is still there, and delivering day in day out on and off screen."
