Sarah Dollard (Television Scriptwriter) Wiki, Biography, Age, Husband, Family, Net Worth

In 2018, she wrote the seventh episode for A Discovery of Witches, a television series based on the novel trilogy of the same name by Deborah Harkness. In October 2018 it was announced that the show would be renewed for a 2nd and 3rd season with Dollard as one of the main script writers.

In December 2016 it was announced that Dollard would adapt YA novel “Cuckoo Song” for television. Written by Frances Hardinge, the novel was “the first YA book to win the British Fantasy Awards’ top prize and was shortlisted for both the Carnegie Medal and the James Herbert Award”.

In 2015, she wrote the tenth episode of the ninth series of Doctor Who, titled “Face the Raven”,. She also wrote an episode of the UK-US co-produced comedy-drama You, Me and the Apocalypse, and ITV period drama The Halcyon. She returned to write the episode “Thin Ice” for Series 10 of Doctor Who.

Dollard created and wrote her own rom-com series Cara Fi (Love Me) with Touchpaper Television, for the Welsh broadcaster S4C. The eight episode series focuses on a sleepy seaside village in Wales that runs out of women, so the locals advertise their single men on the side of milk cartons leaving the dairy. Each episode focuses on a new woman arriving in the village to be set up with a local man. The show debuted in November 2014 on S4C, and was subsequently on the BBC iPlayer.

Dollard wrote the fifth episode of the fifth season of Toby Whithouse’s popular BBC Three series Being Human, featuring guest star Kathryn Prescott, of Skins fame. Digital Spy called the episode, titled No Care, All Responsibility, “the latest in a string of knockout episodes – sweet and chilling in equal measure”. Dollard also penned the webisodes that accompanied Being Human season five, focusing on the character of Alex Millar, played by Kate Bracken.

After moving to the UK, Dollard began working in the script departments of British fantasy and science fiction TV shows. She worked on season two of BBC One fantasy-adventure series Merlin, before moving on to Primeval in 2010, where she script-edited seasons four and five of the sci-fi series and wrote all five episodes of the Primeval web-series that introduced season four.
