Even more from Mike Cotton

  "After nearly 30 years in 'mainstream' television I found that making Dramas as films -"lets just do that once more and from a different angle"- was getting tedious after a life of more or less live television and as we were spending more and more time servicing TPC at Lime Grove Studios, I decided to join them full time. It was back to the world of television as I used to know it, a small unit where everyone drank with everyone else, no (or very few) retakes and the result was there in front of you, gone."
