I’ve only ever been lead writer on a mini-series so I think people don’t think I want to do rooms. This isn’t the case! I’d love to join a room! I’d bring cake!

The first shots.

Been in Glasgow directing David Greig’s The Cosmonauts’s Last Message to the Woman he Once Love in the Former Soviet Union with students from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

They were dreamy. What an honour.
