Kwadjo Dajan is a television producer who has worked for television companies including the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Sky. This year he was awarded the BAFTA Award for Best Breakthrough Talent, for his work in producing the factual crime drama Appropriate Adult, which charted the apprehension of British serial killers Fred and Rosemary West.
It’s an award that has been nearly twenty years in the making. Kwadjo has been involved in television since he was seventeen, when during his A-levels he was selected out of 2,000 applicants for a BBC mentoring scheme, giving him advice access to a producer and the occasional trip to a film set. Even with this early boon to his career, the breaks didn’t come easy.
