Career

Arnold began in showbusiness as an actor, working for six or seven years for the BBC. During this time he realised his talents may lie in working behind the camera, so joined the BBC as a runner, and spent 11 years working his way up to becoming a director.[1] His first episode of EastEnders was on 23 November 2000[2] and he has since directed several notable episodes including Dot Branning's (June Brown) single-hander episode,[1] the Christmas Day 2008 episodes, a live episode on 19 February 2010 celebrating the show's 25th anniversary,[3] which won the award for Best Single Episode at the 2010 British Soap Awards,[4] and the episode 4466, in which Billy Mitchell (Perry Fenwick) carries the Olympic Flame in a live segment of the episode,[5] which was nominated for Spectacular Scene of the Year at the 2013 British Soap Awards.[6] He has also directed for ITV's Emmerdale and Where the Heart Is, BBC's Holby City,[1] and a special EastEnders spin-off, Perfectly Frank, focusing on the character Frank Butcher (Mike Reid).[2]

gollark: I generally say "tell me if you take it". Anyone who does not will pay for their evil crimes.
gollark: Yay, a cheese!
gollark: It's totally my business to impose constraints on stuff I'm giving away. Yes, strictly speaking, they *can* just trade it away, but if I notice that they are absolutely not getting gifts again. Never happens to me, though, since I mostly gift 2G whatevers and the occasional uncommon CB.
gollark: I generally treat trades as "well, this is trading, if I can make use of arbitrage then who cares" and gifts as "must stay on my own scroll unless they specify otherwise".
