I’ve never yet been disappointed by a Nicola Walker performance, on stage or screen. This evening once again she really was an absolute triumph in her latest role in The Unbelievers at Royal Court theatre 🙌🏼🎭

A mooch around Floral Street in Covent Garden with a stop off for a yummy savoury pastry at the lovely Chestnut Bakery is a civilised way to spend a lunch break on a summer’s day!😎🥐

Disney+ series Suspect: The Shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes is so compelling. But it’s frustrating and shocking to watch how this tragedy unfolded. Sadly 20 years on his family may never be at peace until they get the accountability and truthful answers they’re still seeking from Met Police

Great news that #TheYearsPlay with its stellar cast is getting a West End transfer!👏🏼🎭I saw it at @almeida.co.uk this summer and was just blown away by these fierce female performances - each individually incredible and a powerful ensemble cast. Strong viewing though; not for the faint hearted!🎭

Delighted the gallery at our local Pitzhanger Manor #Ealing always has something special in its annual exhibition prog. This time I popped in to the current gem of Grayson Perry’s colourful tapestries giving a modern interpretation of Hogarth’s “A Rake’s Progress” (nice link to Sir John Soane!)🖼️

🧵More in Common have spent the past few months polling & talking to people about assisted dying, we've shared our findings in today's Sunday Times. Speaking to people on both sides has been some of the most moving opinion work I've been involved in. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...
Two thirds of country back assisted dying
Largest study yet reveals attitudes just days before historic vote, but justice secretary brands bill a ‘state death service’

Incredible and historic news that the #AssistedDyingBill has passed this stage in Parliament and that dignity in death can now firmly be part of an important long overdue national conversation🙌🏼
The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill has passed its Second Reading.
A historic first step to meet the aspirations of the public, who overwhelmingly support having choice, dignity, and compassion at the end of their lives.

Sadly disappointed by the lack of imagination and effort this year at #KingsCross station with this boring Xmas tree🥱🎄But across the way St Pancras at least has a semi-festive commercial promo for the new #WickedMovie🧙🏼

Very puzzled that so few UK news outlets (BBC, Sky etc), plus arts and culture organisations (our national galleries and museums, theatres) are on here. Even the few that have an account are not posting. I can see why they wouldn’t quit Twitter / X yet but why not duplicate posts here?🤷🏻♀️
