Thank you to wonderful, wonderful Sophie Hallett @cdgnews for working so hard to keep this award going, and to @bangcastingstudios for sponsoring it. It means such a lot to those of us who work in commercials to be able to submit our work for this brilliant event.

On Wednesday night, Brighton Folk Choir set out on a wassail around the North Laine, brilliantly organised by Sally and Hannah. As well as spreading good cheer and imbibing just a few mulled ciders, we were fundraising for Brighton Women’s Centre, an organisation that has been supporting self-identifying women and marginalised genders for 50 years. If you enjoy these beautiful harmonies (and even if you don’t, although that’s difficult to believe), consider dropping a bit of small silver into the wassail bowl and making a donation using the QR code in the final slide.

Every now and then, us casting directors get to make dreams come true. It’s given me a lot of joy to see the exact moment that Zach met his hero captured on film.
If you’re having a cold, dark day this is guaranteed to make you smile! 💫

@bugoniafilm BUGONIA’s Charita “Momma Cherri” Jones walked her very own red carpet in Brighton this week, looking completely fabulous as always.
I don’t think she’d mind me telling you that she turned 70 this year and this was her very first acting job. I’m absolutely certain that it won’t be her last!
It’s never too late to follow your dreams! 🌈🦄❤️🎬
You’re an absolute legend @mommacherri_official
