BETH: Uzo Oleh & Yaw Basoah on Creating Channel 4’s First Digital Original Drama

Last Monday saw the British TV Broadcaster Channel 4 release Beth - a project billed as its first ever digital original drama, which was not only broadcast traditionally on linear TV as well as on Channel 4 Streaming, but also arrived for audiences first on Channel 4's YouTube. Ahead of that, DN friend Nimi Raja sat down with Beth writer/director Uzo Oleh and producer Yaw Basoah for a chat about formats and the rich subtext peppered throughout their sci-fi mystery meets IVF relationship drama. [Note: This conversation contains spoilers but you can watch Beth at this link]
