and I have started a podcast!
It’s called The Denouement and every fortnight we go in deep on the last episode of a recent television series we think more people should be talking about.
I set up a google alert for my name.
Now I get daily updates about the meteoric rise of Aussie rules footballer Josh Treacy.
I am SO invested in the success of Josh Treacy. A win for Josh Treacy down under is a win for Josh Treacys everywhere.
Five monologues have dropped on
@bbcthree
today that I worked on! They’re all five minutes long and made by THE most talented group of writers and directors – go check them out!

Waste of money. Just buy the £10 Wacky Warehouse unlimited monthly pass and hide in the ballpit at closing time like the rest of us.
Last night I had a dream that a rat king (i.e. a horrific bundle of rats joined at the tail) stole my identity and no one even noticed. The rat king writhed into a coffee shop and the barista just said “white americano, Josh?” Very embarrassing.
Very proud to have scripted edited tonight’s Holby - a tour de force of an episode written by the unspeakably brilliant
@Ciara_Conway
. Biochemical hazard on Darwin! 😱.
#HolbyCity
So
#Showtrial
is rather brilliant. A British crime drama that feels authentic, takes the subject mater seriously, and yet it isn't unrellentingly grim. Dare I say, it's fun!
Got a haircut yesterday (Tuesday). As I left, the barber said 'have a nice weekend!' Feels nice to be on the otherside of one of these mortifying moments for one.
A dream that’s 13 years old………I’m going to be an Olympian
Unbelievably proud to announce I’ve been selected to represent Great Britain at Beijing for the Winter Olympics 🇬🇧
Thanks to all who have made this happen, a post will be dedicated to everyone involved!
had a chinese takeaway last night because my little bro was on bbc news and my mum was too busy responding to facebook messages to do the shepherds pie she'd planned
A FANTASTIC writer has written a FANTASTIC episode - do not miss it! 🤩 Very proud to have got to work with you

(P.s. only 5
#HolbyCity
eps remaining 😭)
I wrote next week’s Holby City, please tune in! It’s this Monday 28th Feb 8.30 (moved due to the football) Script edited by the incredible
@joshuatreacy
!
I love that
#TheGoodPlace
is in chapters, not episodes. It’s narrative has such forward progression. It constantly rips up its own rule book. Love love love.
TWO short films that I script edited, “Oh, Toni” by
@LettiePrecious
and “Rude” by
@annalisadinn
, have been shortlisted for the short-form scripted category at the Broadcast Digital Awards! 🥳🤞🏻
Congratulations to both utterly brilliant writers.

Featuring the cutest shitting goblin on TV. This film makes me miss getting ready for a night out.
I had such a weird journey with Phantom Thread. I hated it when I saw it in the cinema but I couldn’t stop thinking about it but then I loved it on second viewing. 🍄
Don't forget to test for COVID *before* your work trip, not when you arrive. Else you might find yourself quarantined in a Belfast hotel room for a whole week. 🥲
Already dreading the polite laugh we’ll have to do at the theatre in 2021 when every play has a character exit the scene, shout ‘fuck!’ Offstage, speed walk back on and angrily grab their face mask before exiting again.

The sweetest film about friendship and the meaning of ‘home’. There is so much love in this one.
So I notice they used the same location in
#McMillions
for the Illinois McDonalds headquarters that
#Homecoming
use for the Geist headquarters. (It’s upsetting how much I enjoying spotting things like this on TV).
🚨New episode🚨
This week, Mpona and I discuss SHOWTRIAL on the BBC.
We discuss how to make forensic science dramatic, mixing personal with legal narratives, and whether or not Talitha (that little brat!) really did kill Hannah Ellis.
Listen now!

My fav thing about
#WandaVision
is the whole thing hinges on one secret, we all kinda know the nature of the secret, but they’re just gonna hold back the detail of that secret til the very end anyway.
I feel like
#Servant
on
@AppleTV
is more of a binge show than a weekly release. It’s a mystery story I would totally devour in in one sitting if o could, but not sure I’d want to stick with it, dragged out over another month.
I worked on this one! William's monolgue is funny, beautiful, and honest. Plus it'll make you cringe (in a really really good way!) And all of that in less than 5 minutes.
Best part of watching
#TheCrown
was when one minor character is having a birthday cake and my boyfriend screamed in disbelief “THAT’S A MARKS AND SPENCERS VICTORIA SPONGE!!!”
Using Lockdown 1 to become fluent in Spanish was a damp squib.
Lockdown 2 is all about the much more achievable personal-development goal of building a nice whiskey collection.
Recommendations welcome. 🥃
There's another opportunity to join the Wolfpack 👀
