Martin Skinner

A hapless but caring teacher tries to control his class of unruly kids. The teacher sees much good and potential in his pupils, much to the dismay of his fellow teachers who have lost hope in these kids.

A series of four feature-length episodes following the lives of a working-class family from the turmoils of the First World War in 1916 to the General Strike in 1926.

An anthology of six plays, contemporary twists on well-loved tales with dark endings.

In 1620s London, young Scottish nobleman Nigel Olifaunt travels to the English court to recover money owed by King James VI and I. Seeking to save his mortgaged estate, Nigel becomes entangled in courtly intrigue, dangerous rivalries, and the schemes of powerful nobles. When he makes an enemy of the dissolute Lord Dalgarno, the young lord finds himself forced into hiding among London's underworld, fighting for survival and honour.

The title of this BBC children’s drama referred to five children – Sid (Martin Skinner), Fred (Martin Ratcliffe), Algy (John Gugolka), Rosie (Helen Worth) and Clio (Juliet Marshall), otherwise known as the Cemetery Committee. The five had proven their bravery by risking their lives hurtling down Death Wall – an area of an old racetrack where many drivers were killed – on pram wheels. When a robbery takes place, the beliefs of the children are brought into question. To regain the stolen money they too must behave like thieves.
