The Man With 1000 Kids is out July 3rd on @netflix For the last year and a half an incredible team and I have been working on this documentary series with a group of families around the world. They are amazing, brave, kick ass mums (and one dad) - who, faced with a uniquely nightmarish situation, have done whatever it takes to protect their kids. I’m so proud of them - and can’t wait for their voices to be heard.

Roman Kemp: Our Silent Emergency looks at the suicide crisis affecting young men in the UK. On @bbcthree now and on @bbcone tonight at 9pm. I was constantly amazed by @romankemp throughout filming. Such a hard grafter, so conscientious and so compassionate. I really hope as many people as possible see how much he’s put into this. We had an incredible team who made it all happen behind the scenes as well: Production Manager: @amydb_ Editor: Alex Muggleton Executive Producers: @dj.brindley & Nic Patten Producers: @lauz1800 @marianedusei Production Executive: @lilyfitzpatrick3 Interview DOP: @hamish_anderson_dop Commissioning Editor: @maxgogs

Shout out to some of the unbelievably talented team that made this happen. @nelllllllhshs and @zeealikhan our amazing commissioners whose enthusiasm for the series was infectious. @manipeters who found Caroline and made it all happen. James Goldston and Maureen McPhee at @candletruestories who have supported all of our crazy schemes. @sunshinejackson our super zen exec who pushed all of the films to be the very best they could be. Line producer Hannah Lewis who against all the odds made our dreams come true. Everyone at @molinarepost , especially Paul and Deanna, @ross_baker_colourist , @tristanpowellaudio , who gave us a truly Hollywood post experience. @ninonnoiret , @jamesdavidcrouch and Blair our actors who brought real emotion to their physical performances, despite us strapping heavy cameras to their heads and backs! Supremo composer @joel_cadbury_music who started writing this beautiful, haunting, banging score from the scripts, before we’d even shot a frame. @gregggglz who expertly cut ep3 and ensured we’ve got fireworks up to the very end. @simonjmcmahon who meticulously crafted eps 1 and 2, whose storytelling grabs you and does not let go. @ste_ferrari the most passionate, committed, forensic, and creative DOP in the game. @kissyaaw our super producer, who emanates the most incredibly positive vibrations and moved mountains to make our shoots happen. @jackles56 our amazingly talented assistant editor and GFX designer (and DIT, researcher + too many many more roles to list!). @amybrackenridge , our JPM, the biggest unsung hero of this whole series- the scale of what she can pull off is insane. And finally @beavisclare , partner in crime, the heart of the production, who supported Caroline so brilliantly, enabling her to tell this story. There are so many more brilliant people as well. Dream team. What a group of legends!!

Should I Marry A Murderer is out on 29th April on @netflix . A truly incredible team and I have been working on this for the last year and a half up in the highlands of Scotland. It’s a crazy story about an amazing woman, with an unimaginable dilemma at its heart. What happens when you’re the key witness in a murder investigation, and the suspect is your fiancé?

Hauntings: The Enfield Poltergeist, a film I made @storyfilms_tv is on iPlayer now and tonight at 10.20 on BBC2. In September 1977, police attend a house in Enfield, London, to investigate a reported home invasion. There had been loud knocking on the wall and furniture moved. The two officers can find no evidence of a break-in, but they do hear rapping on the walls, see furniture tilt independently and a chair slide several metres across the room on its own. This is to be the first of many extraordinary events that have been recorded on film and audio tape, culminating in disembodied voices and levitation. To this day, the activities remain difficult to explain.

Shout out to the incredible crew @curiousfilms1 this was a labour of love for so many people. First a very special mention to our production team, the engine room, running the show like dons; @katbeebee @kathryn_wellington @heidaryyasmin @itsabipal all cared about the project so much. Our commissioning team at Netflix; @adamjhawkins @nelllllllhshs so supportive throughout, whose crystal clear notes pushed the films to be the best they could be. To producer Charlene Osuagwu, AP Alice Stafford and researcher @phineassajous helping us find new leads, and @thomaswillemrenckens our intrepid Dutch producer. Tibo Travers our drama producer making movie magic with his eyes closed. Kathryn Taylor, our series producer, who brought sunshine and stability to crew and contributors, especially me during our late night brainstorms. Our unbelievable DOPs; @patricksmithdop for your beautiful interviews, @hamish_anderson_dop for your amazing versatility, Kevin Scott packing so much goodness into one day, and @ste_ferrari you maestro; the deep thought you gave to the drama, and the elegance of the execution, has made the series what it is. Along with @joel_cadbury_music breathtaking score which sounds like nothing else. In the edit @ruthnickers Andrea Cuadrado and Agata Krasicka, shaped ep3 into a great finale. Elliot Gee and Ed Emerson, bossed the GFX, along with @chapter3gfx who created the astonishing opening shot. @acelya_kancelik our unsung hero assistant editor, watched more footage than anyone else, and her ideas were so valuable. Our magnificent editor @simonjmcmahon brought rigorous storytelling, lighting pace, flair, humour, darkness and depth to the story, sculpting the series into a tonal rollercoaster. Our tripod of EPs: Dov thanks for backing me and your rock solid support, Curious is such a lovely place to work. @jessieversluys your creative problem solving made so much happen and you fought so hard to keep the series in the best possible shape. And finally @nathill101 who uncovered the story and has worked so doggedly and compassionately for so long to get it onto screen. She firmly believes in the power of docs to do good in the world, and that’s why we’re here!

The Enfield Poltergeist is one of the most infamous, mysterious and contentious poltergeist cases ever recorded. It took place in North London in the late 1970s and involved multiple credible witnesses allegedly observing telekinesis, levitation, possession, and contact from an entity long dead. Various reporters, photographers, scientists and investigators spent months in the house to record these phenomena. We interview them in the first episode of Hauntings: The Enfield Poltergeist. Watch it this Halloween on Paramount+ Filmed, Produced and Directed by me Series Producer: Laura Matthews Editor: Kieran Smyth Directors of Photography: @lorenzolevrini Composers: @ianarber , Thomas Ryan Graphics: Animated Company Production Mangers: Leona Ekembe, Megan Mitchell Assistant Producer: @arantxahbarthe Researcher: @joefkreston Colourist: @carlotta.colour Online Editor: Ian Goff Dubbing Mixer: Dan Chapman Focus Puller: @snnylmzac 1st Assistant Director: Toby Hosking Runner: Isabella Schembri Production Designer: Jo Manser Art Director: Andy Stegall Costume and Makeup Designer: Dominc Webb Gaffer: Nik Lekaj Production Accountant: Stephanie Caine Production Coordinator: @shay_a_m_k Production Exec: Evie Sangale Production Assistant: Imogen Waite Archive Producer: James RM Hunt Archive Researcher: Stuart Heaney Comm Ed For Paramount+: Daniel Pearl Exec Producers for Story Films: Adam Hopkins, Peter Beard

🚨HOW TO HIRE A HITMAN🚨 @Channel4 .. Monday 20th June .. 10pm-Midnight A documentary I’ve been working on at Story Films with the incredible, tenacious, true crime don @yinkabokinni is out tomorrow. We take a look at dark web hitman sites. After receiving hundreds of hacked messages from a murder-for-hire site Yinka journeys deep inside the dark web to find out if it’s possible to anonymously order someone’s death. The hacked message shows hundreds of people all over the world have been ordering hits online. This isn't gangland score-settling, either, but seemingly ordinary people who want friends, partners, work colleagues dead. Such a brilliant team on this: Produced by @kieragod Execed by Bruce Fletcher Edited by Dan Lavender and Jennifer Hampson Production Managed by Leona Ekembe and Annabel Aldridge Interview Cinematographer @lorenzolevrini Sound Design @edmatthews_sound GFX by @greedygoons Commissioned by @rita_daniels_ Post Produced by @directorscutfilms Filmed, Produced and Directed by Me +]
