London

But if I could live anywhere, it would be…
Somewhere in the Aegean

Right now, I’m binge-watching…
Schitts Creek

The last track I listened to was…
Luther Vandross - A House Is Not a Home, I have this on repeat at the moment since a friend did a really sincere karaoke version for me.

I dream about…
This year I have had many many dreams about being inappropriately naked at a water park...

The app I couldn’t survive without is…
The Guardian

Social media is…
for cats & Diane Keaton

When we can travel again, I’ll be heading to…
To see family and then straight to a greek taverna.

The most important lesson I’ve learned in 2020…
Don't hold back, time is precious and you never know when you'll have to spend 8 months in the house again. 

The best/worst thing about lockdown was…
Best thing was cooking, I found escapism in my kitchen.
Worst was not being able to see my baby nephew!


What the film industry needs is…
Bravery. A great idea never came from doing the same thing over and over.

What I wish I’d known when I was starting my career…
Don't be scared to aim really really high. 

The best advice I’ve ever been given…
Google it first.

The film I wish I’d made…
Cold War

My biggest inspiration is…
My friends, they are all wonderful intelligent beautiful people and they inspire me to try and be as cool as them.

The person I would canonise is…
J. Mascis

If I wasn’t really squeamish... I’d be…
a paramedic

My last meal would be…
Cacio e Pepe & a pint of wine.

My life philosophy in three words…
Live, Laugh, lo - kidding... Be kind always.
