Amazing time exploring Chongqing!

Great choice from @bbcnewsuk.bsky.social to appoint the actor Stephen Graham as their China correspondent !!!

Early morning jaunt to one of my favourite corners of the United Kingdom.

Daniel. It’s hard enough without you getting involved…

Splendid I got to start and finish January in Kernow. Truro love.

Others will know more than me - but clubs winning in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup earn £115,000 in Prize Money. I think it would be great if - in the event of a lower league club taking a club from a higher division to extra time - they get this ‘win bonus’. Would make up for loss of replays.

Such a talent.

Great night at the Tottenham Stadium last night.

Bristol Old Vic Theatre School ceasing undergraduate training feels grim. We need more - not less - places to train our young actors that don’t involve the prohibitive cost of living in London. All that history, all that tradition. 😔

Happy 2025 BlueSky! Really hope this is the year you find some traction!

What a joy to see ‘Beauty & The Beast’ at The Lyric Carmarthen today - and to see some of my favourite humans who made it so great.

It is absolutely mental being a Spurs fan.

“Fabulous” only begins to tell of the impact he had. Cheers, Ad! 🤍

Lots to do today. And then the BBC plonks this utterly perfect film slap bang in the middle of its schedule. It’s the law you have to watch it.

Gun for hire (though for the avoidance of doubt I don’t like guns…)

I had a beer with John Prescott once. I really liked him. And admired his authenticity and determination to improve social justice hugely.

What a beautiful November day!

Woking is delightful isn’t it…

Still time for anyone in CDMX to catch the production of ‘Jesu Cristo Superestrella’ I directed there this Autumn.

Terrific week in Tarifa 🇪🇸 with the ‘Sing, Eat, Retreat’ company directing for the ‘Sing Les Mis’ experience. Great food, great people, great location,

Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee. And love alone in the bee-loud glade…
