I’ve seen the pitch document for The Day Today and it’s about a paragraph long. I paraphrase but: “This show worked brilliantly on the radio and we know what we’re doing.” A world in which that is a viable pitch document is something that we surrendered without a fight, which is so sad.

I’ve set up a new company @epicentrearts.bsky.social to provide a hub for my work, teaching, and eventually the work of others. It has a slightly different flavour to the painting. First Epicentre piece is on its way to a BAFTA winning acquaintance this afternoon. He has good taste.

@househammerpod.bsky.social It works better in the memory when you’re not dealing with the script issues. Lee basically counts from one to three then falls off a window. Seeing Peter Sallis get brutally staked by his own daughter was a genuine childhood trauma.

One of the greatest film producers, Jeremy Thomas, died last night. Bad Timing, Eureka, The Hit, Sexy Beast, The Last Emperor, The Sheltering Sky, Crash, Naked Lunch. I made it back from America to be with him at the end. We drank red wine and cried. Truly loved him.

Jeremy Thomas RIP He was a producer who made some of the most exciting cinema happen. Nic Roeg - Jonathan Glazer - Bernardo Bertolucci - David Cronenberg - Takashi Miike - Stephen Frears all had their projects shepherded to the public by Thomas.

I’ve not seen Liv Ullmann’s original but I was swept away by Tomas Alfredson’s Faithless. I loved being back in his Tinker Tailor 1970s again. Beware: it’s interior design porn. Hard to picture young David being best friends with anyone though. His selfish odiousness was a duff note throughout.

Truman Capote was at a bar when a drunk woman came up and asked him for an autograph. This angered her husband who came up with his trousers open and his penis out. “Why don’t you sign this?” TC: “I don’t know if I can autograph it but I can probably initial it!”

Surely no director has made as many great, hugely successful films whilst failing to etch their name into the public conversation. This book is looooong overdue. Great chat - didn’t realise he was Max Freischer’s lad.
