Ep. 101 - Georgia Pritchett talks about writing for The Thick of It, Veep, Succession and more!
Georgia Pritchett is an award-winning screenwriter who has worked on some of the best shows on television including Spitting Image, Smack The Pony, The Thick of It, Veep, Succession and, most recently, The Shrink Next Door, the hit Apple TV show starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd. On top of all that, she has also recently released a hilarious memoir entitled My Mess is a Bit of a Life.
We had great fun talking with Georgia and hearing how she got her start on radio before moving into TV and then writing for Jo Brand. We learn about why Armando Iannucci compares writing a script to making gravy, and how the writing process differs for UK and US TV. We also talk Succession, chat about making horrible characters likeable and hear what Georgia is working on next.
