Popat’s Charles Martin, A live-action director on the rise
It took a while for Charles Martin, a well-heeled director of sketch comedy shows, to break into the world of dramatic television, but after working on his first two kids dramas the BAFTAs started rolling in. His involvement with Giblet Boys, which aired on ITV in 2005, helped the show bring home the award for Best Children's Drama. And most recently, his directorial stint on the second season of ITV's My Life as a Popat, produced by Feelgood Fiction, earned him the nod for Best Breakthrough Talent in the 2007 Children's category.
