Feb 9th - Small Prophets on BBC 2 & iPlayer - don’t miss it!
It’s going to be your Monday night MUST WATCH.
I’m so proud and grateful for this wonderful cast, and all their incredible performances!
Produced by @bluehouseproductions and @gillisles

Delighted to have cast this brilliantly funny series for @babycow_productions
Coming soon to BBC
Loved every minute of it, what a dream team and cannot wait for you to meet our wonderful cast.

Last Episode of Small Prophets tonight at 10pm

The in laws took this picture for me, because @radiotimes kindly mentioned the casting being ‘spot-on throughout’…I didn’t feel like I could ask for one ‘less blurry for the gram’ as I was thrilled they may now know what my job actually is 😂 They have been watching Small Prophets and I have definitely got more kudos from my father in law for a large proportion of the series being set in a shed…😅

The final episode airs tonight and I cannot thank everyone enough for all the incredibly kind messages about the casting and the series in general. So many varied people have been watching, which is exactly when I love my job the most!

So much blood, sweat and tears went into this so it really means a lot. An amazing team of hard working & talented people put this series together.

Someone messaged describing this series as being full of ‘Loveable Oddbods’ and I really love that!

But the massive thanks goes to THE CAST THEMSELVES - you are all incredible. Every single actor has contributed to the whole show feeling like it fits together in this magical and wonderful world from Mackenzie Crook.

Thanks to actors for always wanting to make something special and putting that first and foremost and to committing to audition processes, we know it can be arduous and tough. Thanks also to all the actors who didn’t get the gig and put in the time and effort on their tapes.

Thanks @mindseyedotco and @andrewgaynord

The casting process on these films for VAWG @evawuk was so rewarding and so many amazing actors auditioned for us, and gave such moving performances, thank you. It was pretty frightening how many people have experienced something similar. #endviolenceagainstwomenandgirls
Thank you @emmabranderhorst and @thecornershop.tv

This is how I react when my wife says we can’t get a takeaway. It’s also how I look on a dance floor. It’s mad I’m even married in the first place to be fair…? This one was good fun. Casting by me. Thanks @carlsundemo and @mindseyedotco and of course the brilliant actors:

Talent: Crystal Yu misscrystalyu

This was one of my favourite casting processes in a while, brilliant to work with director @saradunlop and @thecornershop.tv.
A huge thank you to all the young performers, their agents, parents and guardians; especially some who travelled so far to see us for auditions and for sending us some amazing tapes, so many talented performers, lots who had never been to an audition before. And big thanks to @katymcgcastingfortv from our team for her help with the street casting search!
Big well done to Sophie John (with the always helpful Zoe @bonditalent) for a brilliant performance for a really important film. Also a BIG thank you to @coptic_street_studio for facilitating with our auditions.
