Andrew Harries (born 7 April 1954) is a British television and film producer. After graduating from Hull University in the 1970s, Harries began his television career on the Granada Television current affairs series World in Action, before moving on to freelance work. He directed and produced programmes for Jonathan Ross`s Channel X production company in the 1980s, before being appointed controller of the newly created comedy department at Granada in 1992. Over the next decade he produced and executive produced several critically-acclaimed series, including The Royle Family, Cold Feet and The Grimleys. In 2000 his portfollio was expanded to include Granada`s drama productions. He worked on the revivals of Prime Suspect and Cracker, as well as the BAFTA-winning television play The Deal. In 2004 he, along with Peter Morgan, Stephen Frears, Christine Langan and Tracey Seaward, began work on The Queen, which was released to critical acclaim in 2006. Though he had spent 14 years with Granada, part the ITV network, he became increasingly dissatisfied with the management of ITV after its corporate merger in 2003, and publicly criticised the network in 2006. He announced he would not be renewing his contract and departed in 2007 to form Left Bank Pictures. In addition to the awards won by programmes he has worked on, Harries was given a Special Achievement award by BAFTA in 2007 for his contributions to British television. The same year, he was ranked in the The Guardian`s Media Top 100, and Broadcast``s Top 100 Producers. He is married to novellist and director Rebecca Frayn.
