Second sold out show for Sparks at the Royal Albert Hall and another triumph. Very proud to take the traditional end-of-show photo, this time with their amazing band: Evan Weiss, Eli Pearl, Max Whipple and Stevie Nistor. If you were there, let us know!

Ron & Russell moved to London to record ‘Kimono My House’ in 1973 and lived in a basement flat in Thurloe Square. That place was a 10 minute walk from the Albert Hall and - taking the long way round - here they are 50 years later.

What an incredible night seeing Sparks play the Royal Albert Hall for the first time. Was so proud to take this photo at the end of this amazing concert. Such a great show. Just electric. Let us know if you were there x

I come to rave. Today, SPARKS release their 26th album, 'The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte' and I highly recommend listening from start to finish. It's the first to be written after my doc on the legendary Ron & Russell Mael and it made me swell with pride once more.

Disappeared into #theeightmountains and didn’t want to come back. A gorgeous epic about friendship, adventure and some cheese making from Felix van Groeningen & Charlotte Vandermeersch, starring Luca Marinelli & my amico Alessandro Borghi. Made me want to jack it all in and venture into the wild…

Congrats to Ruth Wilson & the whole team for this theatrical experience. What a wild marathon. I was terrified but very proud to be 'Marty' for 15 minutes. Walking onstage to meet her Virginia with no prior discussion is one of the craziest things I've done. She's incredible.

Performed the 3 page dialogue scene. Got some laughs. Called her ‘Virginia’ “unflappable any hour of the day or night”. Ate noodles with her Lady & The Tramp style. She took off my shoes and danced in them. I put on her heels and danced in them. Off stage by 8 AM. It was electric. Would recommend.

Woke at 6 AM (after 4 hours sleep). Showered. Got dressed. Jumped in a cab. Was onstage with Ruth Wilson at the Young Vic theatre at 7:45 AM for her 24 hour play ‘The Second Woman’. I played one of 100 men in the part of ‘Marty’. 1/3

I just randomly heard ‘Dance Yourself Dizzy’ by Liquid Gold, which is one of the uncoolest and therefore coolest bangers of them all. This one has double the nostalgic wallop for me as, at age 5, I listened it on vinyl as part of K-Tel’s ‘Star Traks’ compilation and then 19 years later…

Don’t sleep on Daniel Goldhaber’s ‘How To Blow Up A Pipeline’, one of the best films of 2023. Thrilling, urgent and angry, but as focused on the humans involved as the pressing issues at hand. Brilliantly structured and edited too. And a superb, insistent score by Gavin Brivik. Do see it.

The shoe in Maria's face was the magic ingredient that helped make the film a hit. Thank you and farewell to the great Maria Charles. You were a small but mighty part of a film we are all so proud of. I send all my warmest thoughts to her family and loved ones.

Even more incredible than being allowed to shoot pickups before our test screening, was the response to the scene. When it played to a packed house, I’ve never heard such an enormous laugh for anything in my work. The next scene was drowned out. I turned to Eric and Nira and gave them a thumbs up.

Maria kindly returned to shoot this close-up of a shoe-on-a-stick that we reversed, so we could pull it at speed from her face. This is an old Jackie Chan trick from the Hong Kong school of cinema.

Amazingly Eric Fellner and Nira Park trusted me to do a small reshoot outside London to punch up the sequence. Simon Pegg didn't return for the additional filming, as we had his coverage already. During the reshoot, we covered a key shot of Angel’s foot going directly into Mrs. Reaper's face.

We shot the scene where Nicholas Angel takes out the two Reapers in Somerset in the early summer of 2006. However, when I got into the editing process, it became clear we needed a couple of killer set-ups to make the scene really pop. I asked if this were possible before we test screened the film.

Was very sad to hear the great actress, Maria Charles, passed away a few weeks ago.
I had the privilege of working with Maria on ‘Hot Fuzz’. She played the shotgun-wielding ‘farmer’s mum’, Mrs. Reaper, and was part of the (in)famous scene that got the biggest laugh of any film I’ve ever worked on.
