In addition to collections of my radio scripts and short stories, I’ve also written a guide to both the BBC’s Sherlock and the CBS show Elementary entitled The Immortals. Once a year, I host the film evening of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, so I guess that qualifies me as a sort of expert in the field. I’ve also written a few books, several of them based around my love of Sherlock Holmes (could you already tell that?).
I’m told my adaptation of HG Wells’ The War of the Worlds won an award recently, so that’s nice. Career highlights to date include writing for Malcolm McDowell on Dreadtime Stories and John Rhys-Davies on Twilight Zone. Oddly, though, although I live in the UK, all my radio work is recorded and broadcast in the US – I’ve written close on 250 plays to date, for series including The Hilary Caine Mysteries (my own creation), The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, The Classic Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, The Twilight Zone, The Adventures of Harry Nile, Vincent Price Presents, Fangoria’s Dreadtime Stories, The Father Brown Mysteries, The Perry Mason Radio Dramas, Kincaid the Strangeseeker, The New Adventures of Mickey Spillane’s Mike Hammer, Raffles the Gentleman Thief, and a few other odds and ends. Elliott: I guess you could describe my day job as radio dramatist. You're an accomplished writer, so if you could fill us in on some of the highlights of your non-RiffTrax related projects, that would be just swell. Or at least we hope to God it's not all you do.
We all know you through your riffs, but that's not all you do.
RiffWiki: So, I guess a great place to start would be in telling us a little more about yourself. He lives over in Great Britainland, and we are very thrilled that he will crossing the pond using this great-good internet machine to answer a few questions for us. This week, RiffWiki interviews fan favorite RiffTrax Presents riffer, Matthew J.
