2 | Are UK Music Videos on the Brink of Extinction? - Director Denisha Anderson

*CORRECTION: Approximately 1 in every 46 Londoners is a millionaire. She left cinematography, found her voice in directing. And now, Denisha Anderson’s not holding back. In this no holds barred episode, UKMVA-nominated director, photographer and documentarian Denisha Anderson joins host Lainey Richardson to unpack the reality of working in music videos today. They get into self-belief, resourcefulness, and what it means to stay soft in a hard-edged industry. Discussing tight budgets, crab networking, how Denisha found her voice, and why she’s done waiting for permission to make her work. Denisha doesn’t sugar-coat the grind, nor downplay the joy that keeps her in it. So if you care about music videos, creativity under pressure, or simply want to hear from someone who’s carving their own lane, this one’s for you.

1 | The Screenwriter Who Sparked a Hollywood Bidding War - Gabriel Bisset-Smith

In this exclusive interview, BAFTA-nominated screenwriter Gabriel Bisset-Smith, the writer behind Amazon’s Octopus! - narrated and produced by Emmy Award winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge, trades the writers’ room for the mic and pulls back the curtain on how screenwriting really works behind the scenes. With decades of experience writing, Gabriel reveals the unspoken rules of the writers’ room, why most scripts get shelved, and how he navigates failure, rewrites, paychecks and AI, with a level of humour only a true comedian could conjure. Together with host Lainey Richardson, we get real about the quiet chaos of trying to make it in the industry, unpacking the slippery, strangely glamorous, and often gutting world of screenwriting, and the life that happens between drafts. This isn’t about how to write. It’s about what it costs to keep writing. And why some people still do it, even when it stops being fun, or fair, or paid.Nothing’s off-limits in this conversation. So if you’re serious about storytelling, or simply nosy and want to know what it’s like to work in Hollywood and the UK film industry, then this episode is essential viewing! Catch Gabriel’s latest work, the two-part documentary Octopus! exclusively on Amazon Prime Video from 8th May 2025. Subscribe for new episodes released fortnightly on Wednesdays!
