His radio comedy series Hut 33 about Bletchley Park boffins, starring Robert Bathurst and Olivia Colman, ran for three series.[2] He has contributed to some episodes of Miranda, the television version of the comedy show Miranda Hart's Joke Shop which was nominated for a Sony Radio Academy Award.[3] In 2013 he published his first book, Death By Civilisation, based on articles written for the magazine Third Way.[4] In 2014 he published, in a Kindle edition, a novel, Crossword Ends In Violence.[5]
