Chris Heath
Chris is an award-winning Screenwriter, Author and TV Producer.
Over the last 25 years, he’s worked in a wide variety of genres within broadcast media – starting with the mischievous Big Breakfast, where he dumped a 25ft tall, (and rather obscene) garden gnome outside the corporate HQ of Channel 4. From there, he skipped through various telly genres – Quiz, Light Entertainment and Comedy – before settling in his happy place, Scripted. He created and wrote all 45 episodes of the award-winning children’s series, The World According to Grandpa , for Milkshake. He has also written for comics Sir Lenny Henry, Roland Rat, Brian Conley and Paddy McGuinness.
