Is it just me or are there far fewer poppies on social media this year?
I didn’t know them but I will not forget all those from the Glazier family, or any of those who gave their lives for our country.

“73% of people recognise problem solving (a key #DyslexicThinking skill) as the top indicator of intelligence. A recent you gov pole for dyslexic thinking showed.”

Thank you, Kate Griggs, for commissioning this important study. It feels especially relevant given the ongoing crisis in the freelance TV production space, where we are witnessing mass unemployment and real hardship. Many freelancers are now considering leaving the sector, viewing it as the only logical step due to the current challenges. And one of the most often asked questions is “where do I start with transferable skills?” There are very few training or retraining opportunities for self employed freelancers.

This situation highlights two key points: first, our industry has a high proportion of dyslexic and neurodivergent thinkers; second, the TV production world is renowned for its problem solvers.

TV production demands the ability to react swiftly and creatively under pressure—whether it’s dealing with a key cast member falling ill during production, shifting an entire day’s filming due to sudden rain, losing power to an outside broadcast unit as the late Queen arrives for a Royal Variety Performance, or managing a bomb scare during a live transmission of This Morning.

And in this industry, it’s not just dyslexia that enhances problem-solving abilities—it’s the nature of our work. So, to my fellow freelancers, from audio to wardrobe: when applying for jobs, make “problem-solving” a headline skill on your CV, and include three specific examples of when you demonstrated it. Every seasoned TV professional I know has at least three compelling stories that showcase their ability to solve problems under pressure.

Thank you to my fellow dyslexics for shining a light on this critical skill that our industry needs—and one that we have in abundance!

Trees 🌴 walking to my meetings waiting at the intersection, the sun burns my forehead, at 32 Degrees the heat makes me slightly breathless and the sweat drips to the small of my back from contact with my backpack. Then I walk to the shade of the trees. The cooling effect is remarkable, but not as dramatic as the calming of the soul, even the sounds of the district seem to quieten, my breathing slows and deepens. Before once again in the open the unrelenting heat and suns’ radiation beat down on my head. Let’s plant as many trees as we can if all 7 billion of us planted just one our children may have a chance.

A new project, I love it when science fiction becomes fact. It gives me a real wow moment, as a child “tomorrow’s world” was my all time favourite show. It inspired I life long interest in philosophy, physics and creativity, how many tv shows or tictok videos do that for kids today? This is my only recourse, to use social media to try and fuel that same fire. If just one person finds this, and future posts interesting and it fires an interest, or even just a google search for further information, I’d be over the moon.
