Brutal hours, tyrants and chest pains: a freelance producer on the reality of British TV Thanks to ⁦@guardian⁩ for continuing to cover this story. TV industry needs a new approach to welfare and duty of care for freelancers theguardian.com/media/2024/n…

Huge congratulations to @AnnaHallTV and everyone who worked on #ThePush Look forward to following the impact of this documentary on statutory definition of honour based abuse #push4change

Saddened to learn that Dr Sue Johnson passed away a few weeks ago having only just discovered her trailblazing research. Her words from this insightful podcast are still ringing in my ears- Relationship Science should be national curriculum as she wished podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

“This is where the truth is told or can be told in a really stark way”. Poignant words from @idriselba at @sheffdocfest this morning about the power of documentary storytelling and his experience of making important upcoming @NatGeo series Erased: WWII’s Heroes of Colour.

Haven’t posted in a while but this article by @MarinaHyde about the value of compliance teams from public service broadcasters like the BBC is spot on. Recommended reading for anyone enjoying #BabyReindeer amp.theguardian.com/commenti…

The movement we’ve seen on the Post Office Horizon scandal over the past few days shows the power that television still holds to effect change. To quote the wise words of ⁦@jackthorne⁩, it’s “an empathy box in the corner of the room.” bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-6…

This is a good place to reach out to if you’ve been impacted by any of the issues raised in last night’s #Panorama

In 2022 I visited Cuba for the first time. I was struck by the welcoming and reflective nature of many Cubans I met but I was not prepared for the severity of the current economic crisis. An historic exodus is under way and I wanted to help tell this story bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0…

It was an honour to interview these extraordinary and formidable women on such an important subject alongside @ornellamutoni Our film launches this week on @AETV

“I am not an observer, I am a participant.” Utterly humbling to watch the efforts of Dmitry Muratov and his team @novaya_gazeta unfold in this @channel4 feature doc.

So lucky to have seen this unique and extraordinary film today and meet @ottobaxter His and mum Lucy’s story brought tears to my eyes several times (along with belly laughs and some squeamish eye shutting!). Congrats @ottobaxter for your directing debut and to all @storyfilms_tv

Can’t recommend this film highly enough. A big shout out to @gcam_docs for her utterly compelling, funny and emotive feature doc debut. A life-affirming watch about women fighting for recognition in a sport they love @sheffdocfest

Great to be back @sheffdocfest for the first time since the pandemic. A much-needed reminder of the dedication and talent of so many filmmakers in this rollercoaster of an industry. Good to catch up with so many friends and colleagues including Team @truevisiontv and @CandourTV

Essential insights shared by Mick Lynch and Pat Cullen @BAFTA this week along with a screening of Strike: Inside the Union starting on @BBCTwo tonight. Highly-recommended watching.
