Drama is a brilliant genre to work in, but you need to have a real passion for it to succeed, says Patrick Spence, Managing Director of Fifty Fathoms Productions.
Patrick started out as a script editor on Cracker, before going on to commission shows including Waking the Dead and Line of Duty. Since founding Fifty Fathoms, he has executive produced Sky Atlantic crime thriller Fortitude and RTS award-winning Marvellous.
