I love Jacques Audiard’s films, but even knowing his work Emilia Pérez is incredible. Tender, thought provoking, stylish and surprising. Terrific musical, brilliantly acted by Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez and the superb Karla Sofia Gascon. An absolute must watch

A night watching Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds is always a night well spent. Glad I got to see the Wild God tour on its final UK date

On Friday I wrapped on the 5th Create Central Scripted Drama TV Bootcamp. Fantastic to see the learners' final short film on The Mockingbird Cinema's big screen, can't wait to see how they get on with their industry placements!

Great night at the Midlands premiere of Three Little Birds, the new drama created by Sir Lenny Henry. Heartfelt, timely & timeless story of immigration, beautiful yet doesn’t ignore the prejudice they faced
Airs on ITV this Sunday 8pm
