Christie / GAD nerd, TV producer and lecturer. Profile pic is probably the book I’m currently reading. Described both as “wonderfully niche” and “a good human”.

Not specifically in a restaurant but I was once staying in a veeeeeeeeery expensive hotel (for work) and tried to order (from room service) a meal that turned out to be from the menu for pets.

29 years ago the only thing I ever directed for the BBC was removed from an upcoming episode because the car featured was the same make and model as one involved in a crash in Paris.

Mary?
The opening line, “All God’s children need travelling shoes,” is the title of a book by Mary Angelou. Then “All good people read good books” is the language of a kid who reads a lot. It’s a little road song: you’re on a journey, kind of travelling, but really looking for something. Once I had the groovy little guitar riff, the song just fell together.

This is pretty well known, but the Australian flag Sam Neill wore on his uniform in Event Horizon was designed at his request to show the Union Jack replaced with the Aboriginal flag, because he hoped in the future this is how it would actually look. A proper fucken ally in every way, this bloke.

There’s going to be very little mention of The Dish today and there really should. It’s a beautiful and gentle film with a note-perfect central performance from Sam Neill. And it’s the only film about maths that makes me cry.

If international football worked like boxing (with a competitor remaining champion until they’re beaten and the title moving to the winner, etc) and you work forwards from the first international match, the current world champions of international football would be… USA Please, no one tell them.

Grand Hotel is on BBC2 in about 2 hours. It’s great, obviously, but I’m wondering if 92 years might be the longest gap in history between a film’s release and a TV broadcast.

Your semi-regular reminder that the Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli is a massive fan of Murder, She Wrote which has led to him being given the nickname Detective Locatelli.
