Get Around To It

We're so delighted to have romance novelist Anna Carey on to talk to us for this week's Deep Dive about writing her new novel Love Scene. Love Scene is about Annie and Art, two former classmates who are reunited when writing for an Irish soap opera, Northside. This enemies-to-lovers tale had us kicking our heels with joy - we loved it! Here's Anna on writing the book, romance tropes, writing for a soap opera herself, and lots more.

This week's Deep Dive is an in-depth interview with the fantastic producer Emma Norton who has worked on shows like Normal People, and films like The Souvenir Pt II and Pillion. She's the exec producer of The Dry, which is airing its third season on RTÉ One right now (Thursdays at 10.15pm, or you can binge-watch on RTÉ Player).

It's a fascinating insight into all the work it takes to exec-produce something, including how it felt to work with the "enigmatic" Alexander Skarsgaard.
