His film on the theme of Irish folklore, The Outcasts (1982), won eight international awards. More recently his career as a composer has come to the fore, with a symphony, song cycle, opera and the musical The Gothic Game. Richard Wells is an illustrator and graphic designer. Primarily working in the television industry, he has provided graphic props for the likes of Poldark, Sherlock, Doctor Who, and the 2020 BBC adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
