Tip Toe - Screening and Panel

Leo and Clive are neighbours in Manchester. But when Leo gives Clive his spare key, an ordinary suburban world becomes a minefield of lies and violence, with terrifying results. Join us for an evening celebrating one of 2026’s most talked about dramas - filmed and set right here in Manchester with Canal Street as its backdrop. Along with Quay Street Productions and Channel 4, SCENE will screen Episode 5 of Tip Toe, followed by an exclusive panel discussion with writer and creator Russell T Davies, Executive Producer Nicola Shindler and members of the cast and creative team. Don’t miss this chance to hear all about the making of the series directly from the people who brought the world of Tip Toe to life.
