Mike Bullen

Mike Bullen (born Michael J. Bullen on 13th January 1960 in Bramhall, Cheshire) is an English screenwriter, responsible for the creation of Cold Feet.

Bullen grew up in the West Midlands, where he attended Solihull School and later Magdalene College, Cambridge. He left with a degree in history of art and became a radio producer for the BBC World Service. Unhappy with the quality of British television targeted at people his age, Bullen took a course in screenwriting and developed a one-off comedy drama for Granada Television. This led to the commissioning of Cold Feet.

The series won Bullen the Writer of the Year award at the 2003 British Comedy Awards. He wrote two more series for Granada; Life Begins, which ran for three years, and All About George, which ran for only one.

In addition to writing the series, Bullen has appeared in several guest roles; an Actor, a person calling Pete's phone when Jenny goes into labour,
