Tim Parfitt is a writer and producer. He heads up Nevision Films & TV, SL in Spain, part of the Nevision Group. Tim previously worked in the media in London, Madrid and Barcelona, predominantly for Condé Nast, where he ran the Spanish company, helping to launch Vogue España and eventually launching GQ in Spain, among other titles. His time in Madrid is described in the bestselling A Load of Bull – An Englishman’s Adventures in Madrid. He has also worked for the Press Association, La Vanguardia and Grupo Planeta, editing, publishing, launching and re-launching titles in Spain as diverse as Lonely Planet and Playboy. Having also worked in radio (launching a show called The Weekly Noticias), he has reported from Spain for Sky News, BBC Radio, LBC, Talk Radio, Canada’s CTV News and Turkey’s TRT, among others. More recently, he is the founder of the Spain in English news site, and collaborates regularly with Talk Radio Europe, chatting about the news in Spain each week. He performed stand-up comedy about 45 times in Barcelona, Madrid, London, Edinburgh and New York – but finally realised he wasn’t very funny. Having also blogged about that experience, he now occasionally co-hosts comedy nights. His crime-thriller The Barcelona Connection was published in April 2023. The sequel The Madrid Connection (available for pre-order) will be published in November 2025. His Letter from Spain blog can be found on Substack. Tim lives near Barcelona.
