    Ahead of our release, delighted to wake up to this great review in the New York Times. Our film is insanely Irish. It contains footage of Derek Davis complaining about his ‘soft’ broccoli but really gratifying to see the film resonate internationally.

    18 years ago I interviewed Roy from an Irish landline to UK mobile while he was in the UAE. I think he was bored and we talked for ages. I rang back months later and he told me to ring his hotel landline as the last call had cost him over a grand. He was very nice about it.

    This is really shocking. Someone cut up my film ‘The Last Days of Peter Bergmann’ into a X thread violating every copyright law. It now has 60m views. No attribution or credit. People now making meme coins about a missing person case. Really hard for film makers and this is why.

    More than 500,000 people disappear without a trace every year. In 2009, something even stranger happened: a man appeared. No identity. No past. No record of where he came from. Peter Bergmann never existed. This is one of the greatest internet mystery of all time. 🧵👇

    Felt a bit emotional seeing this as the lead story on the news last night. Can’t imagine how others felt. Long journey. Great that the survivors will get their day in court.

    One of the great privileges of my life was to work on Where Is George Gibney with @younghorgan. Three years in the making, we are back with a new @bbcsounds series called Stakeknife. It tells the true story of an IRA enforcer who led a double life as a British Army agent.

    The final episode of 'Where is George Gibney?' which I made with @Younghorgan is out now. The series began when we parked outside Gibney's house in Florida. It ends now with major developments, a new investigation, and significant voices emerging.
