Award winning writer Sally Wainwright and her co-writer, ex-Detective Inspector Diane Taylor will be visiting Manchester Metropolitan University to talk about
the making of the Red/ITV show Scott and Bailey. The second series of the
Manchester-based Detective series starring Suranne Jones and Lesley Sharpe, is
now filming in the city. Sally and Diane will be talking about
the series from first ideas, through writing and making the first series, and
commissioning and writing of the second.
Scriptwriting students from MMU and students of the MA in
Creative Writing will be invited to ask questions about their own scripts and
series in development. We would like to extend the invitation to hear
Sally and Diane, to members and prospective members of the Writers Guild.
