While serving as the producer of "Why Don't You?" he also made his first forays into writing for television, creating a children's sketch show for early Saturday mornings on BBC One called "Breakfast Serials" (1990). Working for the children's department at BBC Manchester, from 1988 to 1992 he was the producer of summertime activity show "Why Don't You?" which ironically showcased various things children could be doing rather than sitting at home watching the television. After initially taking a BBC Television director's course in the 1980s, he briefly moved in front of the cameras to present a single episode of the BBC's famous young children's show "Play School" in 1987, before deciding that his abilities lay in production rather than presenting. Russell T Davies was born in Swansea, Wales (UK) in 1963.
