Ned Williams started off life as an actor, appearing in BBC dramas such
as Charlie and the Pickwick Papers, before studying English at Hertford
College, Oxford. He then moved into the field of documentary and
drama-documentary making. He has worked on a number of programmes
specialising in art and architecture, Grand Designs for Channel 4 and
