John Gorrie (director)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Gorrie (born August 11, 1932 in Hastings, East Sussex, England) is a director.

He started out as an actor before becoming assistant floor manager at the BBC. He attended BBCs director's course in early 1963 and his first jobs as a director were for the soap opera Compact and the anthology series Suspense. He also directed the Doctor Who serial The Keys of Marinus which he was reluctant to do as he was more interested in directing classics.

Gorrie also directed episodes of Out of the Unknown, Edward the King (which he also co-wrote), Play of the Month, Play for Today, and Tales of the Unexpected.
