He then went on to work alongside Benedict Cumberbatch and Michael Shannon in the 2017 feature film The Current War.

Since 2016 they have been performing at the Leicester Square Theatre in London's West End.

Producer

He won multiple awards for his 80's inspired comedy mini-series 'Chantelle: Psychic P.D - Night Division (2020). The show revolves around a 1984 police comedy from the UK that became an overnight hit. The ‘All Access’ documentary crew follows the actors and egos behind-the-scenes of ‘Chantelle: Psychic P.D - Night Division’. From its huge hairdos to cheesy one-liners, cast bust-ups to torrid affairs, Chantelle: Psychic P.D is a tongue in cheek British comedy with a saucy side. The show is a mix of "real" cast interviews, behind-the-scenes footage from on-set, and clips from the fictitious cop show.

Festival Director

Saul is the festival director for the London International Web & Short Films Festival. Each month the festival invites guest judges, working within the industry, to review films from around the world.


Saul currently resides in East London.
