"Paul Rose is a brilliant and ridiculously experienced writer (wrote the funniest spec script I’ve ever read) and a brilliant person. He should be writing your shows." - Robert Popper, writer of Friday Night Dinner
Hello! I'm Paul Rose, one of the UK's most experienced writers for film and television. For over 20 years I've been writing scripts for film and TV, and I'd love to write a script for you! You can find most of my credits right here.
I'm also available for rewrites, bespoke consultancy, mentoring and script editing for individuals and companies. Click here to find out how I can help your production, script, or career.
As one of the UK's leading writers of children's TV, I was the co-creator and lead-writer of Almost Never, 4 O'Clock Club, Dani's House and Dani's Castle for CBBC. I've also written extensively for adults - including Sky One's Stella, and EastEnders.
Previously, I've written pilots starring the likes of Dylan Moran, Maxine Peake, Mark Heap, Marc Wootton and Ingrid Oliver.
I've been nominated for a BAFTA three times, including for Best Writer at the 2017 BAFTA Children's Awards - and won a Sony Radio Academy Award for my work on the Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show. In 2015, my Christmas special for the 4 O'Clock Club won Best Children's Fiction at the Royal Television Society Awards. Most recently, Almost Never has been nominated as Best Children's Show in the 2022 Broadcast Awards.
In a previous life, writing under the name Mr Biffo, I was one of the UK's top video games journalists, editing the legendary teletext video games magazine Digitiser. I currently write monthly columns in both Retro Gamer and Wireframe.

"I have had the pleasure of working with Paul Rose for the best part of twenty years now. In that time we’ve worked together on shows where Paul has written episodes on existing series as well as on shows where he has been the series creator and lead writer. Paul is an absolute joy to work with: funny, smart, playful, inventive, conscientious, great at story, structure and dialogue.
"He’s funny on the page and in the room. He’s written for a whole cross-section of ages and across different genres, from live action to animation. He’s a brilliant collaborator, generous with other writers and understanding when it comes to the demands or limitations of production, pushing the boundaries of a show whilst still being practical. He’s also just a really lovely guy." - Connal Orton, CBBC

"My brother and I hired Paul to be a freelance writer on a game we were making. He did a bloody excellent job, was great to work with, and improved the game no end. So you should hire him too." Ste Pickford, one half of legendary game development team The Pickford Brothers, and co-creator of Plok!
