Watched Children of the Wicker Man today at #BAFTSS2025 - a film that delves deep into fractious family relationships surrounding the film, not to mention the fascinating details about the film’s chequered production. Amazing work @ellwrig.bsky.social, Chris Nunn & all! 🙏 #childrenofthewickerman
Thank you Rick, Mary, Douglas, James and Pietari and the whole team. You have worked so very hard. BAFTSS is a special conference: it’s always uniquely BAFTSS, but it’s also unique to the host institution each time. Can’t wait to see what it’s like at Bournemouth. (But first some rest.)

Had a great @baftss2025.bsky.social conference! Amongst much doom & gloom around the future HE in the UK, the conference a brilliant showcase of all the fantastic research on film, TV & beyond. Following my paper on Slow Horse's London, it's time for a lie-down!

Presenting as part of the Comedic Aesthetics panel at #BAFTSS2025 tomorrow! My paper is called ‘It’s Not TV, It’s A24’ and will be looking at how A24 have positioned themselves as a producer of televised stand-up comedy and the ways in which this reinforces their strong brand identity.
