Debbie Horsfield Remembers Cutting It
Twenty years ago, BBC viewers found themselves gripped by a tale of personal and professional rivalries, rooted in the perhaps unlikely setting of two competing Manchester hair salons. With powerful performances from Sarah Parish and Amanda Holden - often giving it the full hairdryer treatment – this was a tale of fringes and friendships, trims and treachery. \n\nThe show’s creator, Debbie Horsfield, recalls how Cutting It came to life and explains what it was about the world of competitive hairdressing that gelled perfectly with her dramatic aspirations.
