Dominic Mitchell is an English playwright and screenwriter. He is the creator and writer of the BBC 3 television series In the Flesh.
Dominic studied BA (Hons) Film & Video at the Surrey Institute of Art & Design in Farnham (now the University for the Creative Arts).
In 2009 Mitchell won the Papatango script competition with his darkly comic play "Potentials". Whatsonstage.com called it a “sharply observed satire…truly tense with an utterly gripping climax”. His short play "No. 30 to Pluto" was joint winner of the Churchill Theatre's new writing competition and was performed on the main stage as part of their 30th Birthday Gala celebrations.
In the Flesh first aired on BBC Three on 17 March 2013. The first series comprised three hour-long episodes. An extended second series comprising six hour-long episodes was aired in the United Kingdom from 4 May 2014 and from 10 May 2014 on BBC America. The series was cancelled in 2015 due to funding cuts to BBC Three's budget. He wrote the fifth episode of the HBO science fiction show Westworld with Lisa Joy.
In 2013 he was selected as one of BAFTA's 'Breakthrough Brits'.
He won the Best Writer award at the 2014 BAFTA TV Craft awards for his TV series In The Flesh, which went on to win 'Best Mini Series' at the 2014 BAFTA awards.
