Guy Burt (born 14 July 1972) is an English author and BAFTA award-winning screenwriter who has worked on series such as The Borgias, and Wire in the Blood.[1]

Early life

Burt wrote his first novel during his gap year from school, when he was 18. He read English literature at Oxford University and eventually became a teacher, although he left after five years so he could pursue full-time writing.

Career

Burt wrote his debut novel, After the Hole in (1993), a psychological horror story about a group of private school students trapped in an underground bunker, seemingly locked in by a deranged, sociopathic classmate. He won the Betty Trask Award in 1994 for this work, which was adapted into the film, The Hole (2001), starring Thora Birch and Daniel Brocklebank. He has since published two more novels, Sophie (1994)[2] and The Dandelion Clock (1999).[3]

Burt has also written extensively for television, contributing episodes of Afterlife, Diamond Geezer, Ghostboat, Kingdom, Murder in Mind and The Bletchley Circle.[4] In 2016 he wrote Tutankhamun for ITV [5] and won a Best Writer BAFTA for the children's drama Harriet's Army.

In 2017, he was announced as the showrunner of the Alex Rider television series.[6]
