Julian Mitchell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Julian Mitchell (born May 1, 1935 in Epping, Essex) is an English screenwriter, especially for TV. He was screenwriter for many Inspector Morse episodes. He also wrote the screenplay for the film Another Country (1984). Mitchell co-wrote the teleplay Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) with Ray Davies of The Kinks but it was never produced though it gave rise to the band's concept album. He recently recalled the aborted project: "Arthur had a most unhappy history. It was originally meant to be a...sort of rock opera, and we got as far as casting (excellent director and actors) andfinding locations and were about to go when the producer went to a production meeting without a proper budget, tried to flannel his way through it, was immediately sussed and the production pulled. I have never been able to forgive the man." In 2006 he wrote for the BBC One family drama series Robin Hood.
