TV TV writer Stephen Gallagher discusses his work on the nineties BBC action series BUGS. He was but a writer yet still had quite a lot of creative influence:
"the phone rang again.
It was Stuart. I remember his words exactly: "Brian says that we'll take as many of these as you can possibly do."
And my reply: "Well, Stuart, I do have an idea that might make another story. But it would all depend on whether you could get me a submarine."
There was a pause. Then, in words chosen with great care:
"All I can say at this stage is that I can't see any reason why not."
I was something of a fan of
BUGS back in the day. I wonder if it still holds up now.
