Tina’s work spans various media. She often takes factual material as her starting point but is just as inspired by archetype, myth and the unexpected. She also enjoys mentoring and teaching young people in community, school and university settings and shares with them a freshness of storytelling.
Tina’s television drama work includes the first series of the international hit DOWNTON ABBEY (Carnival/ITV, autumn 2010) where Tina’s episode – co-written with series creator Julian Fellowes – featured Lady Sybil involved in a political rally, and HOME FIRES Series 1 (ITV Studios/ITV, 2015).
Tina’s extensive work for radio includes her recent BBC Radio 4 Drama broadcast in September 2023 KALEIDOSCOPE, commissioned to celebrate 100 years of Radio Drama and directed by Jeremy Mortimer, it stars David Haig. Other work includes two 5 x 15-minute dramas about aid workers with overtones of MASH for BBC Radio 4: CRISIS (South Sudan, 2012) and SYRIA: BREAD AND BOMBS (2014).
Tina has also developed international drama series projects with House of Greenland, UK and MBC, Dubai and ECTI, Armenia.
