Amy:

Paul Burton's short drama film Amy, which he shot at Elstree Studios on Saturday 15th November 2008, was broadcast at least thirty times on Information TV2 (Sky 167). Both this channel and Information TV (166) have now been merged into just one channel, Information TV (Sky 166). Amy may also be broadcast on this channel in the future.

Film Synopsis:

Catherine Henson (Michelene Heine) has been busily preparing for her wedding to her fiance, Steve Parker, for several months when both she and her friend and work colleague, Kim White (Emma Fletcher), find out separately that a mutual friend, Amy North (Perdita Lawton), has been having an affair with Steve. Following a heated exchange with Catherine in her office about the affair, Amy leaves work early in an emotional state and is involved in car crash which results in her untimely death in hospital the following morning. The news of Amy's death results in the majority of her work colleagues, including Amy's close friend, Natalie Lewis (Freya Saddler), blaming the crash on Catherine. They argue that Amy's concentration at the wheel may have been greatly-reduced due to being upset from the row that had just taken place between her and Catherine. Still devastated by the news that her fiance has had an affair with one of her best friends, Catherine now finds herself being sent to Coventry by her colleagues who blame her for indirectly causing Amy's death.
