ABOUT THIS EPISODE
David reflects on a career that spans from the energetic days of T4 and Newsround to navigating the high stakes world of scripted drama.
He opens up about the complex financial realities of modern television, explaining the gap between traditional broadcast license fees and the soaring costs of production driven by streaming giants.
You'll hear the fascinating backstory of how 'Industry' evolved from a vague pitch about banking into a sharp generation-defining drama, largely thanks to the undeniable talent of Myha'la Herrold who completely reshaped the protagonist role.
Whether you are an aspiring writer or just a TV fan, this episode offers a rare glimpse into the tenacity required to succeed in the screen trade.
