We've got a drama on BBC 1 over Christmas. It's based on Andrew O'Hagan's brilliant book 'Mayflies' and I feel very privileged to have been asked to write it. It's about love, loss, life long friendship and facing the truth about our own mortality. My partner Simon died 4 years ago so working on it was deeply cathartic.
