Interview: Hebburn creator Jason Cook
Jason Cook started writing jokes to escape the daily grind of the Merchant Navy. Yet when his BBC2 sitcom Hebburn was given the green light for a full series earlier this year, Cook found himself back working 16 hour days, this time in the writing room. Producing the North East sitcom has taken up the past year of his life, but now the series is done and dusted - with an October air-date in sight - Cook is back doing what he loves most: stand-up.
