In the 1980s I was walking down a corridor in TV Centre when a make up artist ran after me shouting āYour ears!!! I must have them for my production!ā She took me off to a room where she did moulds of them, and they were used for all the creatures in The Chronicles of Narnia.

Iāve written about making art when it feels like the world is ending, about living truthfully in a homophobic world, about the Two Roberts in the 1940s. And a lot of it feels veryā¦now.
"The world is burning. Fascism is rising. Countries are falling. And weāre on the brink of incredible technological change, which will either be the end of everything or a new beginning. So, who needs artists?"
I've written about what it takes to make art & live bravely.
āThey had everything, then nothingā: the prodigies the art world forgot
Robert Colquhoun and Bobby MacBryde were once the golden boys of Londonās art scene ā photographed in Vogue, filmed by Ken Russell and lauded by Francis Bacon. So why did they vanish into obscurity?

Iāve got an audiobook on the go which is told by two narrators. When they switched to the second, his pace was so slow by comparison (and the acoustics so different) it really jarred. Definitely a better match at 1.25x

Get you a man whoāll push pause on Stones of Blood, get up, fetch a pint glass, catch a GIANT FECKING HOUSE SPIDER you hadnāt even noticed, usher it out the window, top up your whisky, and restart the disc without saying a wordā¦
