Gutted. I think I owe the fact I'm currently earning a wage to Bernard Hill. Boys from the Blackstuff was the first thing I wrote about for my thesis. Was a joy (as weird as that sounds) to study and to write.

Genuinely crushed by this news. Terence was a shining light of British cinema; complex, bold, provoking thoughts and feelings no one else could. It was still a privilege watching his films right until Benediction, he never let up.

And he was a beautiful Liverpudlian! RIP.

Got a new little man in the flat called Ted. Here he is co-authoring an article with me.

Fantastic two days at CST Conference TV Studies Research Group at Edge Hill University! A great keynote by Sarita Malik, so many interesting panels, and one of the most warm collegial environments I've ever been a part of. Excited to share my research on BBC White Season and diversity tomorrow!

The first stages of PSM-AP's comparative policy research were introduced and, just as importantly, a lot of the team were together at last! 🇩🇰
