The new tax rules on making high end drama may mean new opportunities for writers. But what does this actually mean on the ground? Will this impact on how writers deliver content? Will commissioners need to change how they work? And will the showrunner play a bigger role in how dramas are developed? A panel of experts from film and TV deconstruct what it all means at the BBC Academy Fast Train Cardiff event, held on 7 November 2013. With Julian Murphy from Little Monster Films, writer Phil Ford, Laura Lankester, head of development for BBC Wales Drama and Ed Thomas, creative director for Fiction Factory. In the chair is Anne Gilchrist, head of development for Tidy Productions.
