I've done quite a few interviews in the lead up to the release of Wuthering Heights. I really enjoyed the Big Issue's focus on
Heathcliff as Landlord (yet another thing that goes missing if you chop out the second half of the book in adaptation!)

Wuthering Heights: Heathcliff is just a really terrible landlord
The new Wuthering Heights adaptation is in cinemas. Will the new film portray Heathcliff as a hearthrob or the cruel landlord of the novel?

Everything this article says is completely right. But all the things he loves about the show are the very beats and features of romance novels; Jacob Tierney’s fidelity to the book is what enabled him to create this beautiful show!
I wrote about a show about love. Maybe you've heard of it.

The Narrative Genius of Heated Rivalry
The show is physical and intimate, surprisingly quiet, and rarely looks beyond the two leads. Somehow it works.

Why can’t women enjoy Heated Rivalry without being treated with contempt? | Zoe Williams
The TV hit has cracked open a rich seam of misogyny: romance is written off as a weird thing that women like, and the audience is dismissed as ‘wine moms’, writes Zoe Williams

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if all you have accomplished thus far in 2026 is reading several books, drinking multiple pots of tea, and consuming a scandalous amount of chocolate croissants, then you have accomplished more than enough.

Brits! Please sign the petition for the full decriminalisation of abortion. This should be a medical issue, not a legal one, but women are still being prosecuted under archaic laws.
There are people trying to import US abortion fascism. Shall we not.

Petition: Decriminalise Abortion
I am calling on the UK government to remove abortion from criminal law so that no pregnant person can be criminalised for procuring their own abortion.
