TERENCE WILLIAMS - DIRECTOR Terence Williams started by going to Drama School and Theatre Club, accompanying his sister who was a singer studying acting. Williams was attempting a degree course in Physics and Chemistry, after National Service in the Air Force. He found himself spending so much time and energy doing shows that he neglected his degree course. He eventually decided that the Theatre was much more appealing and took his first job in the professional theatre in the Dundee Repertory Theatre as Stage Manager then Stage Director and part-time director at the York Citizens Theatre trust, where he met his wife Kate, who was Scenic Artist. Williams joined the BBC in 1956 as a 'Holiday Relief Assistant Floor Manager and stayed for just over ten years, becoming a Floor Manager, Production Manager and Director/Producer. In those days there was a great demand for people with film or theatre skills because of the demand from the new TV companies being formed. Four years after joining the BBC he went on the Director's Course and a year later was directing on the Maigret series. He went on to direct Z Cars, a weekly live fifty minute series, followed by a long string of Drama series in the 1960's. Williams left the BBC in 1968 to join Yorkshire Television. He produced Gazette, Hadleigh , Parkin's Patch, and set up Emmerdale Farm before leaving and freelancing for the BBC and many 'TV companies. In the mid 1970's he went into Independent Production with three other colleagues. "We ran this company for four years at a time when there was very much less opportunity than now for Independents. We survived the three-day week but eventually decided that the returns were too small for the large outlay of time, and I returned to freelance work. My previous agent told me that Terry Dudley was about to produce an interesting series, and Terry invited me to come and have a chat." The series was Survivors and he stayed with it for two years. Following his work on Survivors Williams went to Scotland for a brief spell, followed by The Aphrodite Inheritance. He went on to produce The Chinese Detective for the BBC in 1981-2 (for details see the excellent MediaGems page) |
