So so glad Harlots is on the BBC and more people will get a chance to see it!! Loved it - badass feminist storytelling and an absolute visual treat seeing 1760s London done so well on-screen.

Make sure to catch up on David Olusoga's powerful MacTaggart Lecture from last night. bit.ly/2ExMtxu #EdTVFest

I've had the most incredible, informative and fascinating week at Edinburgh TV Festival, and feel so lucky to have been involved at what feels like a major turning point for the industry. Thank you The TV Foundation for the opportunity to be part of TV PhD - it's been unforgettable.

I did a lil piece as part of a fascinating series Centre for Early Modern Studies at King's are producing on early modern 'keywords'. There are so many interesting entries in the index already, and more to come over the next couple of months! 📚

Very excited to be giving this paper on Monday - though equally sad it's the last session in what has been an absolutely fascinating series so far!! 🔥

A gorgeous, crisp autumn morning at @EHMarbleHill yesterday - the last visit of my three month placement there with English Heritage. The mass of caramel and ruby red leaves made that new lick of paint sparkle all the brighter!!

Really looking forward to discussing all things eighteenth-century shells and grotto-making later on today! 🐚🧜🌊🔨

Loved this Q&A session - some really interesting points raised! So much to think about in terms of memory and the idea of textual inscriptions forming new emotions in the present, as much as commemorating those experienced in the past.

Just arrived back home after yesterday's excellent Emotion, Embodiment and the Everyday, c.1500-1800 conference. Hearing about so much fantastic research and seeing people face-to-face (!!!) was so special - thank you Dr Emma Marshall and Ella Sbaraini for putting together such a wonderful event 🌟

Alert to gals and wives everywhere!! Richard Brathwaite says the more virtuous you are, the sooner you'll pop your clogs - so it's looking like virtue is best avoided 👞👞 (from The Good Wife, 1618)

digging through old pics with my grandparents and devastated to hear about my great great uncle who ...hurt his left ankle

Loved chatting about marriage in history with Becky Measures on BBC Sheffield just now - really interesting show today looking at people's ideas about and experiences of marriage! (also eternally grateful that our nattering was preceded by Disco Inferno 😎)

EMDG is back (in 20 minutes)! At 2pm GMT, Ana Struillou will be presenting her paper on travellers' possessions in the early modern Mediterranean. 🧳 If you're interested in joining, but didn't manage to sign up, send us a message!

Why simply decease when you can fall into a rivulet of time and be launched into the ocean of eternity?

In just a few hours, @JMMorenoMadrid will be presenting his paper on early modern oceanic space at EMDG 🌊 For more details and registration: eventbrite.co.uk/e/231072483017

I've just about recovered from the train journey home... But what a conference! Thanks for a wonderful three days SocialHistorySociety - it's been brilliant to hear about so much exciting research, and to discuss ideas with such a welcoming group!

A perfect little trace of the north Lancashire dialect in this Morecambe Bay inventory from 1649 - ffrian pans galore! 🍳

🚨 Exciting stuff alert! 🚨 Really happy to have been involved in organising these interactive workshops and discussions - can't wait to see the speakers in action!

the stench of mordor coming from these running shoes is irrepressible
