BBC Studios is holding a series of roadshows across the UK in January 2020 to attract talent from the UK film industry to work on its multi-award-winning continuing dramas Casualty and Holby City.
The shows are seeking a whole new generation of writers and directors to reflect the stories of today’s Britain.
Each production gives a writer the opportunity not only to tell the story of the hospital but to bring the writer’s own ideas to every episode. Directors are offered the opportunity to work on the iconic sets, supported by a vast team.
These roadshows are being run in partnership with the BBC Writersroom, Film London, Film Cymru Wales, BFI NETWORK and Creative England and will showcase what extraordinary creative opportunities there are for today’s filmmakers on Casualty and Holby.
They are looking for talent who have significant short filmmaking experience (premiered at an international festival) or have completed their first feature film.
