About

I started here on work experience in 2000, and Maddy and Louise haven't managed to evict me yet. In those nine years, I've gone from endlessly making tea to being notorious for not making tea. Now that's power!

About
I moved to Libra in November 2008 over from Granada. The Libra team are the most welcoming team ever and made it easy for me to fit in.

Liz Horan

Position
Production Manager

About
I have worked in the TV industry for 11years and at Libra for just over 5 years. The best bit about my job is that each day is so different; I love juggling lots of balls in the air. I work with a great team of people at Libra, who make coming to work actually fun (sometimes)


Name
Lee Kitchen
Position
Assistant Producer

About
One of the things that attracted me most to the world of television was the promise that the job would be varied and different and during my time with Libra this has been no exception to the word! My job has ranged from filming and editing to putting up cabinets and painting walls. My place of work could be the office one day and filming off the edge of a cliff the next! (Which I did enjoy I must admit) Add this to a bunch of work colleagues who are amongst the nicest you will ever meet, makes Libra a great place to work!

 

Name
Suzanne Biddle

Position
Assistant Producer

About
I started at Libra on a digitelle placement in 2005 and am now an Assistant Producer. I am a person of very few words so I will keep this short and sweet, unless you would like to hear about the time when I worked as a kids entertainer or about when someone on my own team broke my arm playing football or my beautiful dog or when I was at uni or when I worked in telesales or when I ate curry for 11 days on the row and came out in urticaria?
