Jack RookeProfessional company

Jack Rooke's Good Grief: a decade retrospective of capitalising on my dead dad to varied levels of failure and success (W-I-P) is a work-in-progress idea from Jack Rooke (C4's Big Boys). Featuring snippets from his 2015 debut show, Jack wants to tread down memory lane to look at ambition, public sympathy and the innocent joy of just writing something for oneself, before the arrival of 'telly wankers' and one's own evolution into a 'telly wanker'.
