Emma Frost’s BBC4 film CONSUMING PASSION, celebrating the centenary of Mills & Boon publishing, was broadcast in November 2008 to great critical acclaim. Caitlin Moran wrote in the Times 'Consuming Passion pops with focus and energy' '..wholly admirable - the kind of blue-sky thinking that's going to get us through this recession'. In The Guardian, Sam Wollaston called it ‘a lovely drama. Dead clever too’ and The Times gave it 5 stars, 'Frost's script was wickedly clever'.

Previously Emma has been a lead writer on Channel 4's award winning SHAMELESS (series III – V) burying bodies under patios, giving blow jobs while humming the 1812 Overture, and creating a monstrous mother for Monica. Her series 5 episode, guest starring Anne Reid, was the BAFTA nominated episode at the 2009 awards.
Currently Emma is developing a new series with BBC Drama, adapting a classic novel for BBC4 and writing a feature script for Origin Pictures / BBC Films. Previous film credits include THE FALL directed by Andrew Piddington, (writer/associate producer), and horror film THE DESCENT directed by Neil Marshall (re-write.)
Emma's darkly funny first play AIRSICK, directed by Mike Bradwell, sold out at the Bush Theatre in 2003.
Emma has also written on CASUALTY, MURDER IN SUBURBIA, DOCTORS and children's TV.
Prior to becoming a writer, Emma trained as a fine artist, then worked in theatre, script editing and development. Emma returned briefly to script editing in 2005 to work on Julia Davis's award winning comedy NIGHTY NIGHT, and last year she script edited and mentored on Channel 4's PILOT new writers' scheme and also did some teaching at the National Gallery.
Emma is involved in the charity ANNO's AFRICA which runs therapeutic art and drama workshops with orphans and vulnerable children in Africa.
Her proudest claim to fame, however, remains that she is Sheriff of Hillsboro, New Mexico.
