First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at This episode is made up of one long interview with the writer PAUL EBBS in which he talks about the life of a writer generally, television in general, and he also shares a lot of his advice and theories on structure and writing realistic characters.  As well as all that, he spends some time sharing some of his experiences - the good, the bad, and the ugly  - of writing for television on such shows as DOCTORS, CASUALTY, and EASTENDERS.We also talk about his new work of fiction, the book  TREE FACE AND THE CRIPPLE of which he is very proud and which he'd love you to read - this may have you thinking you've tuned in  to BOOK OF THE WEEK, but, heck, if we do want to take VISION ON SOUND in such an entertaining direction from time-to-time, I don't see why we shouldn't.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.
