Biography

Brian Grant has been directing mainstream drama and music documentaries since 1990, following a successful career directing and producing over 200 music videos and commercials during the 1980s. This led to a "first look" deal with Universal Studios, where he directed many high-profile TV films and mini-series.

Returning to the UK in 2001, Grant teamed up with producer Julian Murphy and co-created the acclaimed teenage drama As If for Channel 4, followed by an American version of the show. He then went on to direct the BAFTA-winning series Clocking Off for the BBC.

Grant's subsequent credits include Doctor Who, Hex, Sinchronicity, Party Animals, Life Is Wild, and Britannia High, as well as a music documentary series called Project Lotus and the acclaimed drama Sinbad for Impossible Pictures and Sky.

In 2012, Sky Arts broadcast Video Killed The Radio Star, a program about the iconic music videos Grant created during the golden age of music videos in the 1980s. He also directed 8 episodes of New Tricks and was Lead Director on Worst Witch for the BBC in 2016 and Our Girl for the BBC in 2018.

Grant wrote, directed, and edited Lennon's Last Weekend for Sky & Britbox in 2020 and is currently filming No Room For Ravers for Sky in 2021.
