I see that Adolescence is the first streaming only show to top the UK's weekly TV ratings, but I suppose as they say...teenage streams are so hard to beat

#AdolescenceNetflix is astounding television, a lesson in what can happen when writers are given longer scenes to stay in a moment. Brilliant performances by everyone too!

Writing is a process some days you are crafting witty lines of dialogue, imagining new worlds, searching into the hearts of characters and spinning yarns, on others you’re at the fridge eat grated cheese straight from the bag…it’s all part of a process.

When Wheelchair Users Try To Hug Each Other

We try to bend round corners
Twisting ourselves into gentle treble clefts
But settle on touching fingertips
Like Tower Bridge
Once the boats have left

Writing for radio is so exciting, collaborative, immediate. It demands a certain kind of imagination. Radio 3 is a rare space that actually cares what you have to say and gives you the time to - you know - author. And it reaches people in surprising ways. Shutting the door to this is terrible loss.

At the moment, I think Minah could run around the castle shouting "I'm a Traitor" and they'd still all vote for someone else because of the slightly suspicious way they drank a glass of water. #TheTraitors

Last night on #Strictly Chris said ‘disabled people can do anything given opportunity, support & determination’. This is true for me and all my disabled buddies. Give us the first two, we supply the third and the results will defy expectation. Every. Single. Time.
