Writing

1/41

Whatever the show, whatever the age range, whatever the medium, Ciaran and Andrew relish diving into new worlds, finding what makes each show unique, and spinning stories that capture that essence. Whether it’s wild and anarchic concept-driven shows or warm and cosy character-driven stories you’re looking for - or indeed a blend of both! - The Black Sheep would love to tell you a story.

Below is a selection of the many shows they’ve written on.
