4. Alma's Not Normal

Available for over a year

Peter Fincham and Jon Plowman are joined by Sophie Willan to hear the story of how she created her BAFTA winning series Alma’s Not Normal. Sophie talks about Alma’s combination of fearlessness and fragility, and how important the cocktail of those traits are to her character. And she tells us about her sense of mission around the series - the importance of telling authentic stories that show how people’s lives have been impacted by cuts to social care services. Producer: Owen Braben An Expectation Entertainment production for BBC Radio 4
