His first TV writing work was for Torchwood (season 2 episode 2 “Sleeper”), and Doctor Who (season 4 episode 2 “The Fires of Pompeii”). He has since written for many other shows, including Primeval (season 3 episode 2), Crusoe (season 1 episode 4 “High Water”), Spooks (season 7 episode 7), and its spinoff show Spooks: Code 9 (season 1 episode 4). He also co-wrote the season 3 episode of Torchwood “Day Three” with Russell T. Davies.
