Who the he** is the writer anyway?


Who knows of this writer, Heidi Thomas anyway? Doesn't look like she has any meaningful experience (and Cranford hardly qualifies)! One of the cast members has to ask his father for a favour if any hope is still alive for this series.

She's actually quite well known and admired within the TV community. U/D is just a small blemish on her record.

Within the TV Community? Seriously? How myopic is that! Viewers don't care about whether she's known in the TV community, and obviously the BBC doesn't have a clue!

To "sex it up" is not clever and good writing.

OK, you like DA, so why waste your time on the U/D thread?

I know this thread is supposed to be a rhetorical thread!

I would just mention that Heidi Thomas has also adapted the hit Sunday night series, Call the Midwife. It seems she is certainly a talented writer.
