Briefly returning here to talk about my London Marathon, raising money for the @NewVicTheatre and their work with those living with dementia. They do amazing things. If you could spare £10, no more, to sponsor my 26 mile run on 27th Apr I’d be so grateful! justgiving.com/page/thompett…

A very poignant night at the recent @MidlandsMovies where Ian Gelder won Best Actor in a Leading Role for Ticker. Writer/director @pettythom and producer @milnerschmueck were at the awards and we’ll be sending it on to Ian’s husband Ben shortly. @bfinetwork @filmhubmidlands

Incredibly sad news and I feel very honoured to have had the chance to work with Ian Gelder. I learnt a lot from him. Was so pleased that he got to receive his smart trophy!
All of us on Ticker are very sad to hear the news of Ian Gelder’s passing. It was hugely generous of him to be involved and he brought so much to the film both on and off screen. All of us send our condolences to Ian’s husband Ben and the rest of his family. #IanGelder

"We found ourselves being asked to perform 'doublethink' when the government line so often did not match our experiences." @PettyThom writes about working on TV drama #Breathtaking and the importance of NHS staff telling their covid stories 🔗 bit.ly/48qP193

#BREATHTAKING Ep3 is all about difficult conversations. To do the script justice, @AndrewCinnamond and I spent time with the cast getting the tone right- breaking bad news to patients and relatives, assertive discussions with colleagues, advocacy for patients. Tune in 9pm @ITV
