Hi! I’m Malak, a British-Egyptian TV Producer and journalist based in London. I grew up in Manchester and entered the TV industry in 2016 as a member of the production team on Blue Peter. Since then, I’ve worked across development, factual entertainment, and scripted drama and comedy. I am currently a Comedy Producer at Tiger Aspect.

I started this newsletter in the hope to address the lack of representation in the British TV & Film industry.

What To Expect As A Subscriber

  • Interviews with talent from underrepresented groups within the industry, providing insights into the journeys of writers, actors, directors, producers and members of crew.

  • A safe space where people feel able to share their experiences, exploring the intersectionality of race, sexuality, disability, gender and class.

  • Opinion pieces, features and discussions about identity, culture, TV, theatre, books and film.

  • TV Truths - behind-the-scenes insights into development, commissioning and producing.

For now, all my posts will be free so everyone can read them, but if you’d like to support this work and help me keep doing it, you can become a paid subscriber!
