@ShaunKitchener What have I told you about ugly-crying -- it's single tear down the cheek Oscar nom crying ONLY in this house!

When I watched this marvellous episode this morning I was fully, audibly ugly-crying #hollyoaks

@Jamielovessoaps Aw thank you - such easy characters and actors to write for, always great stuff.

@alanflanagan It was so so so so so so so good. I think I missed a so in there 😂 Anyway, thanks for having Ste and James read each other’s vows @ the reception and the call back to “Chav in the lav” LOL #Hollyoaks

A special episode of #Hollyoaks for me tonight, as James and Ste get married -- it's the second time I've written (officiated?) a Hollyoaks gay wedding, but this time nobody gets beaten to death with a poker. Though it IS a tear-jerker. E4, 7pm, or online now and forever.

@IAreSam Thanks a million! And yeah Steve did an amazing job.

@Team_Stames Ah thanks very much! Such a lovely episode to get.

@alanflanagan Put it this way. You made me so so so so so so so so so happy 😉 And the way you had James say how Ste's changed him, and shown him he isn't broken, was beautiful 🥹

#LOSANGELES FRIENDS! Looking for a short-term 10-day let at top of next month, anyone recommendations on sublet groups (spare rooms or full one-beds) or friends of friends drop me a message.

"A very touching and beautiful work that questions the meaning of love and personality, the whole point of existing and how we approach love in the first place." Another 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 review for @SilverBellPlay! shinylife.co.uk/2023/02/27/the…

A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Short Trip by @alanflanagan! Our review of #DoctorWho: Downward Spiral ❤️❤️➕🟦 who-review.com/2020/07/28/rev…

Another lovely ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review for The Silver Bell!

Thanks so much to everyone who came to see us last week at @VAULTFestival -- we had a wonderful time, lovely audiences, and generally felt very lucky to get to bring the show to London! We'll hopefully see you soon, but for now -- THANKS!

We know VAULT will come back stronger than ever, but this is such a shame and a blow for fringe theatre. Our experience working on The Silver Bell with VAULT was so professional, warm and creative - they only deserve the best of things. Please, please give if you can!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! One last 5-star (or 5 out of 5 but I'm choosing to call it stars) for @SilverBellPlay before we go into hiding.
