Jamie Donoughue
Episodes Broadcast: 2023
Jamie Donoughue originally aspired to be a professional judoka. He began
recording judo competitions while he was still a teenager, and these
experiences inspired an interest in filmmaking. Donoughue pursued an
undergraduate degree in television and film, during which he began
working as a camera operator and a director for a local television
station. After graduating, he formed a production company which focussed
on music videos. However, Donoughue soon yearned to move into drama,
which led him to write, direct and produce several short films. One of
these projects was 2015's Shok, which was lavished with critical
praise and earned an Academy Award nomination as Best Short Film, Live
Action. Donoughue was soon in demand for television projects, including
episodes of The Last Kingdom, The Innocents and
Endeavour. During the Twenties, he earned both directing and
producing credits on A Discovery Of Witches and A Town Called
Malice. Donoughue was also recruited to direct a mini-episode
featuring the Fourteenth Doctor which will air during the 2023 edition
of the Children In Need charity appeal, as well as a two-part
story for the Fifteenth Doctor which is expected to conclude the 2024
season of Doctor Who.
