Emma Barnett Instagram – This woman. 💓 she captures how life feels and puts it on the page and then on our screens. And we all feel it- whatever it @abimorgan9 wants us to feel.
‘Eric’ on Netflix is her latest creation – starring my fave Gaby Hoffman and Benedict Cumberbatch. But you might know and love her for The Split, Suffragette, The Iron Lady, The Hour – I could go on. She is prolific.
For me? It’s all about her harrowing and love-filled highly personal book about how hard her last few years have been: This is not a Pity Memoir. I read it in one breath almost – that’s how it felt. When it came out we spoke on @bbcwomanshour – where we first met and made a strong bond 10 years earlier.
This week, during my third week at @bbctodayprogramme – I was so thrilled to be reunited once more and talk New York, the eighties, love and loss. Catch back up on @bbcsounds if you fancy- search for Thursday’s programme.
She’s thriving despite what life just chucked at her. TBH whatever Abi’s making, I’m all here for it.
