This week’s edition of Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe, on BBC4, is a writers’ special - inspired by The Writer’s Tale, apparently - in which Brooker is joined by some of the best in the business to answer “a load of questions about the nuts and bolts of writing”. Russell is interviewed, of course - a clip of which was uploaded onto the BBC’s YouTube channel today. Or you can just watch it here:

The entire episode is available on BBC iPlayer until 9 December, and is repeated on BBC4 on 5 December at 11.45pm and 7 December at 11.30pm.
