Another Substack piece. This one about Eurovision.

What me? At a garage fest? Yes, it really happened....
In Phnom Penh, Cambodia, last weekend. And these are the two brilliant Aussie girls who got me there - Elle and Briony of 'Salt and Steel'.

Good luck Simon Halfon, Chris Smith, Andrew Ridgeley, all at GME, and of course, George - at tonight's BAFTA AWARDS.
Last night at the Radio Times covers party at Claridges. Wham! got a cover when Simon Halfon's great film about them was released. And George got one when my film about him was shown on Channel 4. Lovely to see Shirley and Martin Kemp there.

This year I've done more than 60 interviews - TV, radio, podcasts. In America four of my books were published and my George Michael film is now on all streaming platforms. The one question every interviewer asks is why did I want to make it. This clip gives the answer...
