I'm Dougie Brimson. I served in the Royal Air Force from 1976, training as a mechanical engineer and serving in Germany, the Falklands era, and the UK. Those years taught me discipline, teamwork and the power of storytelling. After leaving the service in 1994, I became a bestselling author and filmmaker, writing Everywhere We Go and The Crew, and directing Green Street, Top Dog, and We Still Kill The Old Way. Today I write, adapt, and develop projects while helping service leavers find opportunities in film and TV.…I'm Dougie Brimson.
