Fiona Fung Production Manager

Fiona is one of Full Fat’s Production Managers, having worked on The Skinny Jab Uncovered (BBC3), Musical Masterpieces (Sky Arts) and other ongoing titles.

 

Hailing from South East Asia, Fiona started her TV career in Glasgow working on Arts History documentaries as part of the Channel 4 Production Training scheme. She then joined the BBC in Salford where she worked across genres, from Children’s TV, Sitcoms, and Live Studio.  Since leaving the BBC in 2019, she has worked on a variety of shows from motor show Fifth Gear, BAFTA-winning daytime series The Great House Giveaway, and reality shows The Circle and Real Housewives of Cheshire.

 

Her greatest TV challenge to date was organising a live link up between a studio in Manchester and Steve Backshall who was scuba diving under the sea with sharks in the Bahamas.  She was glad she was on dry land.

 

Fiona’s “happy place” is traveling through the jungle of Temburong by long boat.
