Episode description

Mark Billingham has done it all. He's been an actor, a stand up, a TV screenwriter and a multi award winning crime writer. He's back with his first brand new series in 20 years, with Detective Miller: He dances, he keeps pet rats and he's very sardonic. THE LAST DANCE is a departure from Billingham's award winning Tom Thorne series, with a change of tone that brings rich humour to the whodunnit genre.


Phil & Natalie love Mark's books and chatting to him. This interview is searingly honest about the pain of writing for TV; the pressures of book deadlines and if you've ever wondered where the phrase, 'blowing smoke up your arse,' comes from, Mark will tell you.
