A collection of stories that celebrate life and everything it throws at us through unique and engaging characters.
Nothing to See Here
When a murder occurs in a small village where everyone has something to hide, the residents of Gunjiwigal have to keep the biggest secret of all to stop their own being exposed.
Nothing to See Here is a 6 × 1 hour limited drama series.
Set in a picturesque but isolated village that attracts those seeking solitude, the series explores a complex human collection of stories in one small place. Everyone has a secret and everyone believes they’re the sane one. With only one road in and one way out, the village is cut off whenever the river rises.
Inspired by quirky and unconventional stories in the vein of ‘Sea Change’, ‘Hamish MacBeth’ and ‘Northern Exposure’, where character and environment are interwoven, Nothing to See Here is a uniquely Australian series that gives us ‘Deadloch’ vibes.
The Blue Castle
When a put upon spinster is told she has a year to live, the shackles of fear and conformity are finally broken - much to the horror of her straight laced family.
Adapted from Canada’s favourite author, LM Montgomery (author of Anne of Green Gables).
‘The Blue Castle’ is a limited series.
OPEN CUT
When a workplace fatality tears a small mining community apart, a safety specialist returns from the other side of the world to her childhood home, unearthing family trauma and facing the father she feared for thirty years.

Subverting expectations as successfully as you have in this pilot makes for a strong hook. Audiences will want to know more about Monty’s double life, as I did.
Scriptalooza 2026
Monty is, quite simply, one of the more compelling Australian television pilots I've read. The central character is fully formed, original, and carries the weight of genuine emotional intelligence. The procedural framework is solid but never mechanical. The ensemble is strong across the board, the dialogue is outstanding, and the tonal control is remarkable. "All That Glitters" is exactly the right title for a premiere that understands the distance between appearance and truth. I'd greenlight this in a heartbeat.

The action is fast paced and the dialogue is snappy, reminiscent of Uncut Gems meets To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything. The dialogue is expressive and witty.

Cannes Script Festival Finalist 2026
On the Way to Goodbye is a beautifully crafted short screenplay that achieves what very few comedy dramas manage to: it makes you laugh and then sneaks up and breaks your heart before you’ve had time to put your guard back up.
