Wentworth's Marcia Gardner on Writing for Aussie TV

Undertelly

This week's special guest is the Script Producer of Wentworth, Marcia Gardner. With an extensive CV ranging from the likes of Heartbreak High to Stingers to Sea Patrol, and to what the Sydney Morning Herald now calls "the best drama on TV at the moment, Aussie or international", Marcia is a stalwart of the Aussie TV industry. With season 6 of Wentworth fast approaching we were lucky to sit down with Marcia to chat about how TV dramas are written in Australia, how that compares to America, the role of the Script Producer, and what the future holds for Aussie TV writers.
