I'm now mostly hanging out in my new home online, 'Meandering over the Pebbles', where I'm blogging about work & life adventures, documentaries & nuclear stuff. Come say hi!

This month marks a whole decade of work by of an organisation whose support & mentorship has been *invaluable* to parents/carers working in film & TV, me included. I hope one day they won't be needed anymore but till then, I'm wishing @RaisingFilms a very happy 10th birthday!🎂🍾.

Reflecting on some of March's best moments in my latest meandering diary update. Plus Joan Crawford dancing the Charleston - who could resist 😁💃

If anyone here’s still seeing my messages (waves hopefully!) I’d love to invite you to this FREE online event I’m hosting discussing #nuclear apocalypse in 1980s #film & TV in Britain & America with @DPU_Hum_Ctr @min_kyookim

I was writing a post. But instead I went for a walk.

Psychogeography & mental time travel in this week's blog as a film screening brings back formative memories of my days at the glorious @MECCambridge #Cambridge #womeninfilm

Just seen that #Threads is screening at the wonderful @TheGardenCinema in Covent Garden tomorrow night. Amazing opportunity to see it on the big screen (if you can face it!)

A couple of weeks on from reliving the trauma of #Threads40 on its anniversary BBC screening, I've published my deep dive piece revisiting the film - and its vital & urgent ongoing relevance @ianmac67_SE @CNDuk @ByYrSide

Cambridge friends, I'm thrilled to say I'm coming home to @MECCambridge for a very special screening of 'The Atom: A Love Affair' on 3rd Nov + Q&A with Dorothy Byrne (a massive honour in itself). Tickets are free - book here I'd love to see you there.

I wrote a bit about #Threads after re-watching last week ( but am planning sth more detailed in the next week or so & would love to include some other perspectives/thoughts/memories alongside mine if anyone's up for that? @CNDuk @ianmac67_SE @ByYrSide

Not sure I’m ready to watch this again but here we go. Anticipating feeling even more terror and horror this time around than the first time… #Threads40.

My sports-mad 10 yr old is getting the most out of our Discovery+ subscription before it’s cancelled next week delving deep into Eurosport’s offerings (teqball, petanque, biathlon). Just came in & immediately recognised the dulcet tones of @nedboulting - yes, he found padel 😄.

Warm & dry at home after a truly memorable evening of al fresco theatre chuckles with my 10 year old watching Jeeves & Wooster @BOATheatre. Massive props to the incredible cast from @TetheredWits who were hilarious & valiant in the face of the frankly ludicrous winds & rain 🤣👏🏻.

Kicking off a new project championing my all tiem favourite feature docs (no shorts or series, soz) - master list up now and posts on individual films to follow. Check it out! And let me know - what's *your* favourite documentary??

I blogged this week about the pluses and minuses of comparing yourself professionally - can anyone else relate. ?

Dunno what it's like where you are but it's grey & rainy where I am so here's an A to Z list of my favourite things to cheer us all up. I'd love to hear some of yours too!

What a delightful way to spend Monday evening. I am *loving* the Brighton Festival Film Unit (and available if you’re hiring 😄) And an utter treat to see @BTTCOfficial (and some familiar faces) up on the big screen. Thanks to all involved - aren’t we lucky to live in this city!.

In all the years I’ve been coming to @DukeofYorks I’ve never sat in the balcony before - it’s great up here! Very much looking forward to a stimulating evening of GPO films with @brightfest @frankcottrell_b @davidshrigley

Big thanks @Lighthouse_BTN @DivideClass sound artist @Nervoussystem91 & the brilliant young people of East Brighton for creating/sharing this unique work. Check it out if you can! Better than the park according to my son 🤣#NeolithicCannibals (2/2).

Just took my 10 year old to the Neolithic Cannibals sound art exhibition in this year’s @brightfest - so great to experience our corner of the city in this way, thoughts of deep time (on my mind in relation to nuclear projects) mingling with visceral bodily vibrations (1/2).
