RHLSTP Book Club 130 - Lissa Evans
Book Club #130 - Picnic on Craggy Island - Richard talks to ex radio and TV producer and now successful novelist Lissa Evans about her fab book of reminiscences about working on Father Ted. They discuss what it is that a producer actually does (which is an awful lot as it turns out), how Lissa went from fan girl to producing the second and third series of this iconic series, the perfection of the casting and sometimes unrecognisability of the actors, the tragedy of Dermot Morgan’s death the day after the final day of filming, why you should never tell writers not to do something, the relative lack of photos and why it’s nice to look back at this series from the distance of three decades.
