Happy Grantchester Day everyone ❤️ @iamMartinSmith @SheWritesOn @SophieWay98 @LindaScript
Tonight 9pm on @itv and @itvx ! Had the most fun directing tonight's GRANTCHESTER with the best cast, crew and team #Grantchester
Less than 5% of shows are directed by disabled talent - against a working population of 19%. Broadcasters are failing disabled talent, and we need to see clear commissioning targets, a willingness to hire under-represented talent and a structure that supports career progression.
I can’t tell you how viscerally moved I was by @jackthorne's writing for this show. His empathy and insight for the multiple disabled character stories is remarkable, and shines a light on the validity and importance of telling disabled narratives. Best Interests BBC1 9pm tonight
Ever eloquent, @jackthorne and our fantastic cast Niamh and @SharonHorgan on the 'empathy box'.
Here's to the work and the future.

#BestInterests premieres on @BBCOne and @BBCiPlayer today.
Starring @SharonHorgan and Esther Hall!
Directed and Exec Produced by @MichaelKeillor, with 2nd Unit Director Martin Smith, Director of Photography David Raedeker BSC and Production Designer Alison Butler!
Can't wait for people to see this remarkable drama #BestInterests
