the skies are watching

The Skies Are Watching is a sci-fi thriller radio drama, produced for BBC Radio 4. It's a multi-episode dramatic series, premiering in July 2024 on BBC Radio 4. I worked on the series as as production manager, and I also have a very small role in the series, in episode 5 as a UFO cultist.

The Skies are Watching has been selected by the Tribeca 2024 Festival.

Jury statement: “Drawing from the historic past of radio drama and presenting a story that feels breathlessly of the moment, this genre-bending series brims with intrigue. Its shifting, stylish approach to the medium always kept us guessing as top-notch sound design introduced us to its cast of bewildering-yet-relatable characters. Classic and timeless meets cutting edge.”

If you're in the UK it's being brodcast Friday afternoons, July 5, 12, 19, 26, and August 2 2024 on BBC Radio 4 at 14:15.
