Welcome to the seventh edition of Let's Chat for Hear First Productions.
Every time we publish an episode of Hear First we intend to speak to the people that wrote it. We want to know the motivation behind the lines and find out how these scripts came to be...
This month we speak with the writer of our 10th episode - Dan Bottomley
We chat about Dan's perceived obsession with Edgar Allan Poe - the author who plays a big part in 'The Legend Of The Black Pigeon', and how Dan wrote the music of the episode.
