Women of the Toubou

Short documentary about the Sahara-dwelling Toubou, a tribe in which the women are treated as equals by the men.
Caring for History
Producer
A BAFTA award winning documentary investigating the work undertaken by the Ancient Monuments Division of the Department of the Environment in preserving the fabric of structures from Neolithic to Georgian.
Never Go with Strangers
Producer
Never Go With Strangers was intended for children aged between seven and ten and its purpose was ‘to warn them of the dangers of accepting lifts or presents from strangers’. Due to potential distress government officials instructed that the film only be shown under ‘responsible adult supervision’, thus denying it a TV airing for many years.
Turner
Executive Producer
A documentary feature offering a general introduction to the work of the painter J.M.W. Turner.
I Think They Call Him John
Executive Producer
The life of an old man, John Cartner Ronson, living alone in a huge block of flats in London since his wife died nine years earlier.
Birthright
Associate Producer
Birthright, which presents the work of the Family Planning Association, is a valuable record of the organisation of contraception and fertility services before the introduction of the contraceptive pill. But, more than this, in its filmmaking style it conveys much about the social attitudes of this era, and the spirit in which those services were conceived and delivered.
Simon
Producer
Story of Simon, the odd boy out and how he is thwarted in his attempts to be one of "the gang".
