I’m sitting on the train heading west after the most unbelievable day where a film I edited for two of my best friends only went and got OSCAR nominated. Incredible.

⭐️I’m grateful to the editors for including my personal essay in the new Winter 2025 issue of Trasna ⭐️
I wrote about Nollaig na mBan, the birth stories we share, and the ones we don’t.

Not just a very good sports film (which is an achievement in itself) but a very good film.
Very impressive work - and the film will hopefully travel well.

"A GAA club isn't just a threshing machine that separates the wheat from the chaff, and at the end of it you have a senior Gaelic football team."

'Sanatorium' airs tonight on BBC Storyville. Having something I cut on the @bbcstoryville strand has long been a major ambition/weird obsession of mine. So I'm chuffed about this. It's on tonight at 10 and on iPlayer after. theguardian.com/tv-and-radio…
