Biography

Terry McDonough got his start in the television industry during the mid-Eighties. He variously worked as a grip, a camera assistant or a camera operator on movies like Letter To Brezhnev with Alfred Molina, and shows such as This Life. By the late Nineties, McDonough was directing for programmes including Liverpool 1, City Central and Peak Practice. Amongst his credits after the turn of the century were The Royal, Wire In The Blood and The Street; towards the end of the decade, he began working on American shows like Breaking Bad. During the 2010s, McDonough was principally based in the United States, with assignments like Suits, Better Call Saul and The Expanse; he also earned his first credits as an executive producer on the latter. Nonetheless, he was occasionally lured back to the United Kingdom for projects such as Cold Feet. Likewise, in 2013, McDonough's love of early Doctor Who prompted him to direct An Adventure In Space And Time. The docudrama about the show's formative years was broadcast amidst the celebrations of its fiftieth anniversary. McDonough continued to work into the Twenties, on programmes including Killing Eve.
