2026 - A Year Of Lovely Things

When your brilliant friends do brilliant things!!

I met and worked with Joy Wilkinson so may yeas ago now on a gorgeous play of hers. And now she is an incredible filmmaker! I had the absolute pleasure of working on her feature film 7 Keys for a few days and it was such a joy. An absolute labour of love with a wonderful team of creatives and crew. There are also some bits filmed in our flat!!

I am just delighted to see the film taking the world by storm at festivals and prizes and now with a US release!! Joy Wilkinson you are a total legend!!

US pals… if you like your horror sexy… Treat yourself if you’re over there, and Unlock Your Fear...

7 Keys is officially out in North America today 🖤🔑

So I’ve spent most of the past year with my hands in the soil… but when I’m not knee-deep in the garden this sort of wizardry happens 🌿🎬 🎭

If you’re in the US/Canada, you can watch the trailer + pre-order now (link in bio).

I’d love to know what you think… and if you’re a thriller person, please send it to a friend who loves a twisty, dark ride — that kind of support makes a massive difference for indie films.

This one was intense in all the best ways.

We made 7 Keys in just three weeks, filming all over London with the most incredible group of people — the kind of project that completely takes over your life for a bit (but you wouldn’t have it any other way).

The trailer’s out now and the film lands in North America on 27 Jan 🇺🇸🇨🇦

If you’re over there, you can pre-order via the link in my bio.

I’d love you to watch, share, or send it to anyone who loves a dark, twisty, sexy thriller 🖤

2016 - urgent phone call from the Governor's desk - the end of an era of #Wentworth, meeting brilliant windswept new mates at the dawn of a new #DoctorWho era, my Mum gets married, beautiful friends make a human and I get to squeeze Carrie Fisher ❤️ Good times.
