Testimonials

Excellent all round! Gary was very thorough in the explaining of his recommendations for change in my manuscript, and in answering the questions that I then put to him as a result. I was very pleased that, in Gary, I had an expert on not only police procedure, but also legal and court procedure, which I had previously anticipated having to get other experts in to advise upon. But was able to cover all of this with Gary. I would highly recommend Gary to others, and wouldn’t hesitate to use again myself, if the need arose.

Gary is superb. I sent him several questions in advance on police language and procedure for my crime novel. It was then a real pleasure to discuss them with him over two 60min telephone consultations.

The level of insight Gary provided was excellent. It was clear he had given my questions advance thought before we spoke and understood what I was looking for with police detail. I particularly liked how he brought in the latest media and high-profile cases making the news. It has added another layer of authenticity to my manuscript.

Gary Holmes was a top notch police officer – his standards were on display when he worked with us on a TV documentary. Accurate and balanced, his portrayal of the story also offered suspense and drama as we heard of the twists and turns of the case we were following.

In TV there is a practical side which can never be under-estimated. We need to work with people who know we have time constraints, editorial boundaries and ofcom regulatory factors to consider and to do this whilst making a shot or interview set up look fantastic.

Gary took all of those challenges on board and made things happen.

A pleasure to work with.
