I had a fab Saturday night at ‘Chicken Rising’ - the screening of the latest projects of a director pal, Mark Locke. It was great meeting a few old actor chums especially seeing some of them on the big screen! Well done guys! @FortMark @MrLSaunders @Baldfinger

As we enter Mental Awareness week, it is important to know that no-one is alone. There is love and support out there. A story, based on truth, is the basis of a new play performed at The Birmingham Black Box on the 15th & 16th. Come, join us in the story.

Thank you to @BrumRadio and @elisabethdw for inviting me in for a chat on the Chicken Soap for the Soul podcast. I felt so welcome and EDW is a brilliant host - please check out her other podcasts!
BARRY BIGLOW could easily be described as a bit of a cult figure. This week’s guest on https://t.co/kOxphRnTSY,
@BBCDoctors’ hapless security guard, played in nearly 100 eps by the gifted & self-effacing @DavidPerksActor, followed the path of so many perennially-unlucky British

I believe #BBCDoctors would have been 25 years old today and that's just the excuse I need to post up the 'Doctors - A Celebration' documentary featuring interviews with cast and crew (including myself and Claire Bennett with a special mention of Barry!) https://t.co/9KV54J6kUC

If any fans aren’t aware, Elisabeth Dermot Walsh, aka Zara from Doctors, is hosting a podcast interviewing people from the series. EDW is a fab host and the guests have been giving a great insight into working on the show - a brilliant archive for #BBCDoctors - thank you EDW!
@BBCDoctors Thank you so much for all these fantastic questions! Some of them heartfelt; which I truly appreciate. Please consider giving our new podcast CHICKEN SOAP FOR THE SOUL a listen. It’s a departure for me, & may well just be an excuse for a catch-up with my erstwhile colleagues! I

@Teamdoctors22 @DavidPerksActor Still time to vote! Be amazing if Doctors won a posthumous award. (P.S. Even Hollyoaks, Neighbours and Home and Away didn't get shortlisted in the Best Soap category!) 🩺 https://t.co/SLH2sPN2y8
