- Cardinal leaving the conclave:
- Thrilled to have chaired this year’s Director Fiction jury at the BAFTA Craft awards. Especially in a recording breaking year for female representation @bafta.org
- BAFTA noms party ready 🎉
- One of the top rated comments on an article about yesterday's ruling was "well done UK now deal with the invaders". Transphobia is akin to white supremacy. It's a gateway and sets a precedent that ALL of our rights can be rolled back.
- Both systems of belief are often used to reinforce rigid hierarchies, control over bodies, and a desire to return to an imagined "pure" or "natural" social order. That's why we say "Trans Rights are Human Rights" 🏳️⚧️
- Just found out “the winner takes it all”. Huge if true
- The sun really highlights how very few people know how to use a pavement
- Sometimes I feel like giving it all up and becoming the face of Loewe
- I don't want ads that are tailored to me - I am highly susceptible
- What's the nicest way someone has told you that you are long-winded? My friend recently told me, "I love the way you go out of your way to really paint a picture."
- Eid Mubarak everyone ♥️
- Feel like the “art for all” argument when it comes to AI generated images is so weak because you wanting to see what you like as an animation is just narcissism not art
- BAFTA noms are a go! Proud as punch to be on the TV committee for another year ♥️
- Congratulations to the incredible 2025 nominees for the #BAFTATVAwards with P&O Cruises and #BAFTACraftAwards 👏 To view this year’s talented lineup, head to our website: www.bafta.org

- I was wondering why I was in such a good mood then realised it's because I had recently eaten a 10/10 brownie
- I keep “sent from my iPhone” at the end of emails because it means that despite me being out and about and busy I took the time out to email you back. Like a little digital forehead kiss.
- I need an anthemic, roaring crowd version of “pink pony club” on Spotify
- Why do these look like cigs
- The problem with being a millennial on TikTok is that I have money to buy a lot of the tat that I’m being advertised through TikTok shop. And I will buy it.
