I wrote about my old school, Downside, and how to reckon with its legacy of abuse. I'm so grateful to all the survivors who shared their stories with me. telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/3…

@andyneilson @thetimes @jubileemedia @jasonylee_ Thanks Andy -- kind of you to say, glad you enjoyed it!

Great piece in @thetimes on the future of political debate and how YouTube is eating TV’s lunch by @AHABDiggins, on @jubileemedia (feat. @jasonylee_) “Question Time on steroids” is spot on: more heat, more spectacle, less mediation and millions watching thetimes.com/culture/tv-rad…

@Dan_Farah Hey Dan, I'm writing from the Daily Telegraph's arts desk. Would love to chat about The Age of Disclosure. Could you drop me a line? alex.diggins@telegraph.co.uk. Thanks

⚠️ For 60,000 years, the tribes of the Andaman Islands have lived undisturbed – but now their way of life is under threat. Our writer travelled there to investigate their fate 👇 telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/11/0…

Earlier this year, I went to the Andaman islands for @Telegraph to investigate the fate of some of the world's last isolated tribes – what I found was shocking. Thanks to @Survival & many others for their help. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/11/0…

@AdamKoszary Hello Adam, are you free to talk this morning ? Working on a piece for Telegraph Arts. Thanks

@AdamKoszary Hey Adam, would love to chat to you for a Telegraph arts story. You free this morning?

I've worked in a few museum stores and honestly this is so easy to get away with for a while. If something isn't requested for research or an exhibition you wouldn't know for years. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

@CoutsDianne That’s v kind you to say, Dianne. Sorry to hear that your school experiences were tough. But glad the piece provides some context and closure.

@AHABDiggins Your essay about boarding school mirrors my experience at a boarding school for missionary children in the 1960s and 1970s. I winced and teared up at some of your phrases but it was, at the same time, very validating to read my story in yours.

I wrote about my old school, Downside, and how to reckon with its legacy of abuse. I'm so grateful to all the survivors who shared their stories with me. telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/3…

@philoholland Thank you, Philo. V glad it resonated with you.

@AHABDiggins It’s a brilliant piece. Describes very accurately what it was like to be there in the early 80s. Thank you.

@BeingBoycie Sure thing: telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/3…

@AHABDiggins Very good article on Downside in today’s Telegraph magazine thank you. Do you have a link that I can forward to a friend?

I profiled extreme surfer Garrett McNamara for @HBO's 100 Foot Wave -- the man knows how to make office life seem tame #comment" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">telegraph.co.uk/tv/0/100-foot-…

@LaurensJulien Hey Julien, I’m working on a piece for the Telegraph magazine. Would love to pick your brains about all things French football. Are you free to chat at some point?

And episode 5 of The Rabbit Hole Detectives podcast - with @RevRichardColes @CatJarman and me - is out today, wherever you get your podcasts. Cat on saunas is not to be missed. Richard, as ever, is ridiculously well informed. This is our weekly antidote to grim news….

@mrkocnnll @Jack_Flag_ Oh, looks grand. Any chance I could see a copy?

It's such a cool thing to see a cover design, and to feel that it's a perfect visual manifestation of the book you wrote––which is exactly how I felt about @Jack_Flag_'s design when I saw it

“a coming-out novel in the truest sense. [Don’s] loss of virginity … is described with muscular, slippery immediacy. Most giddying are the passages that evoke the slow-mo slide of [his] professional collapse.” TIEPOLO BLUE @TheCriticMag 🙏 @AHABDiggins thecritic.co.uk/issues/februar…

@meganphelps Hello Megan, I'm writing from Telegraph's arts desk. Would you be up for an interview? We'd love to set something up. Thanks!
