Day Job

My day job is editing TV programmes.

I may be kidding myself here.  At what point in your twenties does your day job become your job?

I have no time for such considerations - I'm working for the BBC. I am always conscious of what a privilege that is, and always conscious that a freelancer can be sacked at any moment.

This week, I’m doing two days for the Culture Show. There's a new film about Dylan Thomas, The Edge of Love, coming out.  As well as the interviews and reviews, we're making a short piece where the residents of Laugharne read a couple of Dylan Thomas's poems, Perfect Day-style.

This is the last job I did for them.


Karl is sharper than he makes out.  He works with Ricky Gervais.  (That's for you, google).
