Loved listening to this Xmas Spesh episode of @freeforallpod.bsky.social featuring my good pal, @caiross.bsky.social . It’s kept me going during the Christmas dinner prep. Be seeing yule! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/f...

A recorded a quick round up of 2025 for Writers on Film podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/w...

This was the first episode of the James Bond Book Club. I talked about Casino Royale with Neil Alcock podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/t...

Let the peeling of the potatoes commence. Cue the Rocky IV training montage music.

If it’s got snow, it counts as a Christmas movie.

A top 5 is not enough. There has to be The Hill, The Offence and The Verdict. But we’re all winners whichever you choose.

We have an oven! I have gone from this George Bailey to that George Bailey. Atta boy Clarence.

Saving this for tomorrow when I start the great potato peel.

Tree For All?

Was told the oven wont be repaired before Xmas. Then given the option of a replacement oven… which wouldn’t arrive before Xmas. Bounced from call centre to call centre, navigating their labyrinthine organisations, alternating between ranting and pleading until one is being delivered tomorrow.

Waiting to find out today if our oven is going to be repaired for Christmas or not when have the whole tribe coming for Christmas lunch is a little… testing.

Fine with me.

Going to bed now so I can yet again get up and watch the cricket through the night. Another night of anger and frustration awaits. Supporting England cricket at times like these is an unrequited love story.

When his friend Ian Fleming ask him to appear in the first James Bond film as the titular villain, Noel Coward’s telegram read in reply: “Dr No? No no no!”

Join us next Monday for our Christmas episode - ‘Rebellion on Prime Time’ in which we explore the reactions of critics and viewers between 1967–68, when the show first challenged television norms. #theprisoner #patrickmcgoohan #portmeirion #dangerman #beseeingyou #pointsofview

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Horrendous news. There’s no words.

Can you please all preorder CONNERY My novel. It is out in February but the more preorders we get the more my publisher likes it. plumeriapics.co.uk/shop/ols/pro...

Christmas night: "But Santa, you've hardly touched your Zardoz cookies."

Tree’s up.

Nothing says “I love you” at Christmas like a picture of a hanging carcass for the bedroom wall. christopherjamesart.bigcartel.com #manics #manicstreetpreachers #richeyedwards #seanconnery #joanofarc #thepassion #columbo #peterfalk #artprints #art #prints #jamesbond #connery #richeyjames

The preorders have been really good. But it’d be amazing if we could break records.

David Lynch’s American Dreamscape author @mikemiley.bsky.social on Writers on Film open.spotify.com/episode/16Lc...

Just watched Jay Kelly on Netflix. A self indulgent poor-movie-star-me tale that relies on annoying Christmas Carol style flashbacks with old him walking around his memories. Twaddle.

Up at 3.30am to watch the second test of The Ashes. Hope springs eternal. Come on England.

Conshider it shmashed. Yesh.

COMING SOON

Guys, what are you waiting for? There’s some deeply gorgeous work here. Treat yourself. christopherjamesart.bigcartel.com//?utm_source...

Great to see The Magic Hours included in @thefilmstage.com Holiday gift guide. Impeccable taste thefilmstage.com/the-film-sta...

I’ll be getting up at 3.30am again on Thursday. What is it about supporting a team that turns perfectly rational people into naive fools that shows Einstein’s definition of insanity to be well founded?

Monday coming.

Happy birthday to Terrence Malick. He is one of the most influential and visionary American film directors of the last 50 years and I eagerly await Way of the Wind. I had the glorious adventure of writing his biography www.amazon.com/dp/198590118...
