My latest film "In My Own Words: Alison Lapper" is on TONIGHT on @BBCOne
Eternal thanks to Alison Lapper, the whole team at @ChalkProd_Ltd@kiraphillips@KateSpankie and many more!
It was an honour to tell Ali's remarkable life story and to celebrate her beautiful son Parys.
In today's @theipaper, I interviewed the artist Alison Lapper about love, art, her grief for her son, modelling for a sculpture on Trafalgar Square's fourth plinth and having her life documented on film. She was brilliant. https://t.co/2CN5iVhTjl
A lovely piece in @Broadcastnow from #GriersonDocLab alum Poppy Goodheart on her latest project for BBC Arts.
She discusses planning for sensitive interviews around love & grief, and there are even some filmmaking top tips in there too

#GriersonDocLabAlumni Alert! 🚨
Directed by Poppy Goodheart, check out The Incredible Talented Lucy, now available on @Channel4
Poppy was on the New Entant training scheme back in 2013 – it’s amazing to see her going from strength to strength in documentary 📽️
Congrats Poppy!
“Lucy makes you completely rethink how the brain works and how the heart works” … watch this deeply thought-provoking and heartfelt film now on @channel4 streaming #TheIncrediblyTalentedLucy#ThePiano
If you're watching The Incredibly Talented Lucy on Channel 4 right now - a brilliant documentary about the breakout star of #ThePiano - here's my interview with Lucy's piano teacher, friend and "musical soulmate" @daniel_bath https://t.co/DHOUKcfKKd
There's a documentary about Lucy from #ThePiano this weekend (Sunday at 10.05pm on Channel 4). I spoke to her piano teacher @daniel_bath about their extraordinary musical journey - and how the biggest gig of her life was almost derailed by royal security https://t.co/DHOUKcfKKd
Vovan, the central figure in our @BBC film 'Ukraine: Enemy in the Woods' has been killed alongside 5 comrades in a Russian tank attack. A kind, genuine soul who cared deeply for his men. Rarely seen without a smile. He leaves behind a wife & two sons. Rest in peace Vovan.
The murder of young boy in a public park on a Sunday afternoon horrifies both the town of Reading and the nation as a whole. Thames Valley Police use digital connections from an online teenage community to build a case in #MurderCase#TheDigitalDetectives, 10pm on @Channel4
