'Authenticity and empathy are at the heart of what I do' he says. In this podcast, we examine the secrets to his success as a creative and a documentarian.
Reggie Yates is an actor, television presenter, documentarian and screenwriter. He's best known for his hard-hitting documentaries in extreme environments but has now turned to film writing and directing. His debut film - Pirates - is a comedy set in London at the turn of the millennia.
