Are there any interviews you've watched with writers that inspire you?

I’ve just watched the first episode of Jimmy McGovern’s Broken. It’s just fabulous. He wrote Cracker, Redfern Now, The Street, and he is one of my favourite writers. I just love his work. It has such heart and humanity.

After watching Broken, I was inspired to see if he ran any classes for writers. I would LOVE to attend a writer’s class with him. I couldn’t find classes, so I wondered if there were any interviews with him and found the ones I’ve linked to below. This experience made me wonder are there recordings of interviews with writers that my Fluther friends have engaged with and that they love? So if there are, please share.

And if you haven’t watched any of McGovern’s work, please do. It’s hard, gritty and real. It will probably break your heart, but it will make you think and feel.
