I have worked with Paul on several occasions over the years and he is great at coming up with ideas, following narratives through, is a master a forging trusting relationships with contributors and consequently gets the best story from them.

Nik Warner - Series Producer / Series Director

I worked with Paul on Series 1 of 24 Hours in A&E. He worked extremely hard and was very charming with contributors who were all fairly vulnerable having arrived, unexpectedly in the emergency department.

His warmth, genuine manner, real interest in people and passion for documentary always comes through and he obtained and maintained access with a large number of contributors.

Amy Flanagan Commissioning Editor C4 Documentaries

Paul is a real 'people person' and has an uncanny ability to put contributors at ease and get them to tell their stories regardless of their background. He has a very honest and open approach to all his subjects and this is reflected in the unique access he is able to achieve. Great in a team and as an individual film maker.

Simon Tucker, Creative Director Mir Reality, Moscow.

Paul is very methodical and hard working. He possesses an amazing ability to coax information out of contributors. He's also fun to have around the office and a great team player
