Overjoyed that I got to interview Greta Lee about Past Lives, my favourite film of 2023, for the new issue of Total Film. We spoke about not being the first choice to play Nora, inyeon and what that emotional last scene really meant

Have had a blast editing this year's Christmas That Changed Me special issue. First up, we have an interview I did with McFly's Tom Fletcher, where he talks about winning a trip to Lapland with Chris Tarrant when he was 7 to meet Santa (so Christmassy!) theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

This is devastating news. The world needs more film magazines, not less. I've loved writing for Total Film for the past few years and it's been a privilege to work with such a kind and talented team. Love to everyone at TF during this horrible time. It will be missed!
