Sophie Neville became inadvertently well known as a child when she starred as Titty in the 1974 feature film of Arthur Ransome's book 'Swallows and Amazons'. After that sunshiny time she went on to work for the BBC behind the camera on television programmes such as Gerald Durrell's 'My Family and Other Animals', 'Doctor Who' and 'Eastenders'. Having produced her own 'Inset' series for BBC2 she was busy directing her second drama serial for children when she conked out, going down with a mystery illness. Sophie now lives on the south coast of England with her husband and enjoys trying to grow plants with pink flowers. Every year she disappears for a while to ride in different parts of the world and has also been known to go sailing, but only when the sun shines. See less
