Synopsis
Now in it's third series, WPC 56 is BBC One's award-winning drama series following the daily challenges facing the first policewoman to join a West Midlands force in the 1950s, where sexism, chauvinism and petty grudges are added to the policeman's usual lot.
Backstory
Having worked with the team and BBC Birmingham on Doctors, I was invited to direct the series finale of WPC 56 and jumped at the change to work on this fantastic period drama.
