Patrick Walters. Patrick is an Executive Producer at See-Saw Productions, with previous work that includes; Head of Development on Slow Horses (Apple TV and Amazon Prime), Executive Producer on The Essex Serpent (Apple TV), and Executive Producer on Heartstopper (Netflix), for which he won an Emmy. Most recently, he served as an Executive Producer on Sweetpea, starring our very own Luce, available on Sky, Now TV, and Starz. The girls were (overtly) rather excited to have someone as knowledgeable on ‘Getting Sh*t Greenlit’ as Patrick. They were able to ask their own burning questions, along with the listeners, and hope that the listeners find it as insightful and inspiring as they did!

Tom Berkeley is one half of the infamous writer/director duo known as Tom and Ross (@RossJwhite). Tom started off as an actor then, during the pandemic, made the switch to writing. Tom and Ross wrote their first short film ‘Roy’ starring David Bradley, which was long listed for a BAFTA no-less. This short was used as a proof-of-talent to find funding for their more ambitious project ‘An Irish Goodbye’ which you may have heard of it because it went on to win an IFTA…. BAFTA… AND AN OSCAR - stunning trifecta. Tom and Ross are an incredibly hardworking and talented duo who have just finished writing their first feature film - and we simply loved picking his brains on all things story-telling!

You can now watch their short films on DISNEY+.
