Our grandson Frank (10) is a huge Percy Jackson fan, so he headed off to school dressed as Percy himself today! We think he looks rather splendid. 😊 Pretty sure the brilliant @rickriordan would approve. #WorldBookDay #PercyJackson #RickRiordan #BookLovers

Out walking Dylan this morning - two male pheasants having a standoff. Chest out, feathers fluffed, each convinced the patch of ground was theirs. Sound familiar? #YorkshireLife #CountryLiving #DogWalk #WildlifeWatching #MorningWalk #Pheasants #SeenThisBefore #NatureObservations #PowerStruggle

Libraries don’t just loan books — they build audiences. 📚 From packed talks to being told our crime novels are among the most-borrowed, libraries have been central to our journey. Stories live here. #LibrariesMatter #CrimeFiction #LibraryLove

Dylan our dog took us on patrol today and uncovered… sheep showing off fresh summer haircuts and a rabbit casing out a garden. 🐑🐇 No crimes reported – unless you count sheep streaking! Though if we had to put them in a line-up, we’d be stuck! 🤣 🐑🐏🐇 #yorkshire #DICharleyMann #DiJackDylan #sheep

Caught in the act! Dylan was busy reading PAYBACK - first in the di_charley_mann series - and gave me this look. Guilty or what? 🤣 99p, over 3,000 readers love it, and Dylan approves. Amazon - share.google/images/LtajI... #DICharleyMann #NationalDogDay #goldenretriever #bookdeal #

From Scott & Bailey to Happy Valley, one moment changed everything. We walked ITV’s corridors, saw our names in the credits — and loved every minute. And who knows… one thing led to another. Maybe it will again 👀 #RCBridgestock #TVDrama #HappyValley #ITVDrama #CrimeWriters

Day 4: Behind the scenes #HappyValley Sally Wainwright asked: “How do we show a hit without budget for surveillance?” Bob: “Motorbike. Pull up. Shot to the head, then mouth.” “Why the mouth?” “He was a grass.” Police realism, written into drama. We advised on all of it. #BBCDrama

RC Bridgestock @rcbridgestock.bsky.social · 16/07/2025

“How do I play him?” At the Happy Valley read-through, James Norton asked Bob how to get inside Tommy Lee Royce. Bob said: “He’d either tell you everything… or snap.” That switch — calm to chaos — made the performance unforgettable. #HappyValley #RCBridgestock #facttofiction op

Everyone remembers the bump. Kirsten. Run over. Not just once. Sally asked: Why like that? We said: It shows intent. No gore. No music. Just silence and shock. That’s real. That’s what stays with you. #HappyValley #TVwriting #truecrime #BBCDrama #TrueCrime #CrimeFiction

Mum’s 86, tried the hairdresser at the home… but gave me that look. After nearly 50 years of trims, she says, “If you want owt doing right, get your daughter to do it.” ✂️💇‍♀️ She’s happy. I’ve still got it. #Yorkshire salon: kitchen chair, cuppa optional. ❤️

Happy Valley started with a conversation. We were asked to help make it feel real. The name came from a phrase we knew well. That’s Bob’s real office on screen. That’s Carol’s old team room. It’s in our bones - and our books. 📚 rcbridgestock.co.uk #HappyValley #BBCDrama

Dylan (our golden retriever, not the detective in our books!) went to the vet today… Booster ✔️ Weigh-in ❌ Apparently someone’s been investigating the biscuit tin too often. “Does my bum look big in this window?” Vet says yes. Dylan pleads fiction. #CrimeAuthorsAndCanines

On our Sunday walk, I admired a newborn foal. Bob saw a hammer, broken glass… and socks. 🧦 Criminals sometimes wear socks on their hands — no fingerprints, no "going equipped." This is why I write crime with a detective. #CrimeWriting #TrueCrimeTips #SundayStroll @DHHlitagency
