I am happy to give you more details on Nat's next TV interview. He will be part of Channel 4's Sunday Brunch on Sunday May 30, 2021 from 09:30 to 12:30 (GMT). There are more guests coming up: Annie Mac talks about her book, Mother Mother. Tom Allen chats about Bake Off: The Professionals. Rapper Bugzy Malone discusses his album, The Resurrection. Delta Goodrem talks about her album, Bridge Over Troubled Dreams. Nat will be chatting about the TV series The Beast Must Die. David O'Doherty discusses his book, The Summer I Robbed a Bank. And there's music in the studio from singer Greentea Peng.
So excited as we approach countdown! One week until The Beast is unleashed. Just thought I should mention, I am on Sunday Brunch, next week, 30th May. I'm not sure of the radio schedule yet, but I hope some of you have seen Radio Times and last week's Guardian piece on Cush. Jared is in the Sunday Times I think this weekend. Oh the joy of it all.

How absolutely awful that Texas has brought this new abortion law into being. How dare they! Through what archaic prism does Greg Abbott see women that he decides he can have a say over their bodies? What an awful awful day for the women of Texas, and all those who want to support their free will.
Thank you for all the lovely messages celebrating my birthday yesterday. It was a terrific day, I loved it. The best bit was going out to dinner with Anna and plotting the year ahead, till the big one! It's a full on year! Starting with next week's Beast début. Really nervous now. I am doing a few radio interviews next week and, I think Sunday morning Kitchen on TV as well as an RTS panel with Dome and Gaby. Gosh I hope you all like it! Till then.
Byeeeeee. N x
Is the title of a new movie that I am shooting right now. Up On The Roof. Good title. Good film. It's what people call a low budget film. It is directed by up and comer Ben Hecking who is now on his fifth feature. Film is obviously in his blood, which is always an exciting element in a director. he's not just trying his hand at it, or flying by the ol' seat o' th' pants, he is in it for the long game. And he comes at it from a cameraman's angle. That's his training, altho' at that helm we have Simona Susnea who has previously only shot shorts and docs, but seems really capable. How refreshing to say that the last two jobs I have worked on, Hunting Bears and this, have both been shot by female DoPs. Shouldn't really have to mention it, but it hasn't been the case for me before and it is a relief. I have known many female DoPs and generally the only difference between male and female is the age! Meaning that they have never been given the chance, and now they are; long may it continue.
