    I'm making a sitcom pilot! I've teamed up with @benkent66 & we're turning the script I wrote last year into a thing, but we need your help! Never done a crowdfunder in 10 years of making comedy. Feel physically sick. Anyway, your support means the world!

    Everyone thinks the whole nepo baby thing is about their parents literally lining them up with a job, but it's about knowing you can take risks and really go for it because your family can help you out financially if it all goes wrong. It's about even feeling like you can try.

    Exactly 168 years since Leo Tolstoy wrote the greatest diary entry of all time.

    Love Actually is set in 2003, but the Joni Mitchell Alan Rickman buys for Emma Thompson was released in 2000. He should have bought her 2002 album "Travelogue," as she was less likely to have heard it already. Another little-discussed facet of his villainy.

    Refuse to believe that anybody has ever located the bottom of the BT Tower. It lives in a perpetual state of being just over there.

    If this tweet gets 100 likes, I will reveal what is behind this door that was supposed to be kept locked shut in the toilets of the building where I am working today. I genuinely gasped.

    I have finally recovered emotionally enough to tell the story of a Zoom corporate gig I did earlier this year which ended with the client interrupting what I was doing, asking me to do something else, and me responding by playing "Happy Birthday" on the clarinet and hanging up.

    Watched Loki and kept remembering the time my friend was picking sloes on Hampstead Heath and Tom Hiddleston walked past on his phone, then came back 5 minutes later and said "Blueberries?" and she said "Sloes" and he slapped his forehead and said "Sloes!" and walked off.

    Tearing out my hair over this guy. YOU ARE THE OPPOSITION, HAVING A MANIFESTO WHICH IS OPEN TO TORY CRITICISM IS YOUR JOB. A MANIFESTO WHICH DOESN'T LEAVE ITSELF OPEN TO TORY CRITICISM WOULD BE A CONSERVATIVE MANIFESTO. Sincerely, A constituent.

    I'm sure lots of people with famous parents have never been specifically given opportunities or industry contacts by their family, but that doesn't mean they haven't benefited from the privilege of knowing they can do it and fail. It just needn't be quibbled over.

    Last night a woman tried to walk out of the show but left through the wrong door that led into a fire escape that she couldn't leave without setting the alarm off, and rather than come back into the show she just stayed in the fire escape for the entire hour. Commitment.

    Personally I never really feel like it's Christmas until the industry I work in starts to fall apart, and 75% of the things I planned to do in the subsequent year crumble away, and another year of my life is eroded by an emerging plague, and I see the Coca-Cola ad.

    Still got paid, though. Nice clients, would recommend.

    And the reason lots of so-called nepo babies get so defensive about it is because from their POV, they looked at what their parents did, saw that it was possible, then did it, knowing that there was money enabling them to try. That doesn't FEEL like you've been helped.
